Why is Testing required?



Software Testing as a separate activity in SDLC, is required because-

  • Testing provides an assurance to the stakeholders that product works as intended.
  • Avoidable defects leaked to the end user/customer without proper testing adds bad reputation to the development company.
  • Separate testing phase adds a confidence factor to the stakeholders regarding quality of the software developed.
  • Defects detected in earlier phase of SDLC results into lesser cost and resource utilization for defect resolution.
  • Saves development time by detecting issues in earlier phase of development.
  • Testing team adds another dimension to the software development by providing a different view point to the product development process.
