The Software Development Process, often known as the Software Development Life Cycle, is an organized method for creating software for a system or project (SDLC). Waterfall, spiral, and incremental development are just a few of the ways that can be utilized (see Software Development Approaches). These various strategies will concentrate the testing effort at various stages of the development process. However, the fundamental stages of development are the same for any strategy. Within the context of more complex systems, the incremental development strategy often serves as the foundation for software development.
Software Development Process Steps
There are four main steps in the development of software. These steps are described in more depth below.
Planning comes first.
Phase 2: Execution
3rd step: testing
Deployment and upkeep are the fourth steps.
Types of Software Development Approaches
There are three main types of software development approaches. These are:
- Waterfall Approach
- Incremental Approach
- Spiral Approach
- Agile and Scrum
