4. The Software Development Lifecycle
The Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) is the process that a product goes through to be developed.

5. The Software Development Lifecycle
Software Testing is a critical step in the software development lifecycle to ensure that a product meets it’s intended needs, works technically, and is free from defects that could impact production.

6. The Software Development Lifecycle
The process consists of six primary phases, starting from planning and ending on deploy.
Planning
Define
Design
Build
Test
Deploy

7. SDLC -Planning Activities
Activity
Planning is when the Project Plan is defined by the Project Manager
A Project Plan shows all the activities and tasks that must done, by who, and when.
Responsible
Project Manager (PM)
Deliverables
Project Plan Document
Talk about the artifacts that come out of each phase

Now that we have a project plan for what activities and tasks need to be done, by whom and when, let’s learn about the
Define Phase.

9. SDLC -Define Activities
Activity
During the Define phase the business and technical requirements are defined for the project.
Responsible
Business Requirements are defined by the SMEs (Subject Matter Experts) with the help of BAs (Business Analysts). BAs also help document the requirements.
Technical Requirements are defined by a Application Architect.
(System Analyst, Application Designer, etc.)
Deliverables
BRD (Business Requirement Document) TRD (Technical Requirements Document) FRD (Functional Requirement Document)
Talk about the artifacts that come out of each phase

10. SDLC -Design Activities
Planning
Define
Design
Build
Test
Deploy
Once the requirements have been stated, the next step happens in the Design Phase.

11. SDLC -Design Activities
Activity
During the Design Phase the internal and external workings of the product is designed.
Responsible
Application Architect and/or Solutions Architect. (May be referred to by other names, i.e. System Analyst, Application Designer, etc.)
Deliverables
Functional Design Documents and/or Functional Specs (Functional Specification Document)
Talk about the artifacts that come out of each phase

12. SDLC -Build Phase
Planning
Define
Design
Build
Test
Deploy
It is now time for the application to be built by the Development Team, in the Build Phase.

13. SDLC -Build Activities
Activity
During the Build Phase the application is developed by the Dev Team (Development Team). Unit Testing is done by the developers to flush out any problems.
Responsible
Dev Team
Deliverables
Application is ready for formal testing
Talk about the artifacts that come out of each phase

14. SDLC -Test Activities
Planning
Define
Design
Build
Test
Deploy
Once ready, the product is handed off to the QA Team to begin the Test Phase.

15. Test SDLC -Test Activities Activity Responsible Deliverables
Product is tested to verify the requirements and flush out the defects.
Test Cases are executed and results are captured.
Defects are resolved by development and retested once fixed.
User Acceptance is also done by the Business.
Responsible
Test Team (QA Team)
Deliverables
Test Cases are updated with test results.
Talk about the artifacts that come out of each phase

16. SDLC -Deploy Activities
Planning
Define
Design
Build
Test
Deploy
Once all testing is completed by the QA Team and the users, the product is ready for the final Deploy Phase.

17. SDLC -Deploy Activities
Activity
During the Deploy Phase the application is implemented into production. (Go Live)
The term “Production” refers to the actual live environment used by the business/users.
Production is where the business can be productive; hence the word production.
Responsible
Deployment Team
