Verification
Verification ensures the product is designed to deliver all functionality to the customer; it typically involves reviews and meetings to evaluate documents, plans, code, requirements and specifications; this can be done with checklists, issues lists, walk-throughs and inspection meetings.
Verification (Process Oriented)
Verification involves checking to see whether the program conforms to specification. I.e the right tools and methods have been employed. Thus, it focuses on process correctness.
Validation and verification testing
Used as an entity to define a procedure of review, analysis, and testing throughout the software life cycle to discover errors, determine functionality, and ensure the production of quality software.
V&V
"V&V" is an acronym that stands for verification and validation.
"Validation: are we building the product right"
"Verification: are we building the right product"
Verification and validation (V&V) is a process that helps to determine if the software requirements are complete, correct; and if the software of each development phase fulfills the requirements and conditions imposed by the previous phase; and if the final software complies with the applicable software requirements.
software verification
In general the demonstration of consistency, completeness, and correctness of the software at each stage and between each stage of the development life cycle.
Life Cycle
The period that starts when a software product is conceived and ends when the product is no longer available for use. The software life cycle typically includes a requirements phase, design phase, implementation (code) phase, test phase, installation and checkout phase, operation and maintenance phase, and a retirement phase.
software life cycle
Software life cycle begins when a software product is first conceived and ends when it is no longer in use. It includes aspects such as initial concept, requirements analysis, functional design, internal design, documentation planning, test planning, coding, document preparation, integration, testing, maintenance, updates, retesting, phase-out, and other aspects.
SDLC
SDLC is an acronym. It stands for "software development life cycle".
What models are used in the software development life cycle?
In software development life cycle the following models are used: waterfall model, incremental development model, rapid prototyping model, and spiral model.
Audit
(1)An independent examination of a work product or set of work products to assess compliance with specifications, standards, contractual agreements, or other criteria.
(2)To conduct an independent review and examination of system records and activities in order to test the adequacy and effectiveness of data security and data integrity procedures, to ensure compliance with established policy and operational procedures, and to recommend any necessary changes.
