Hi
   Requirement Analysis itself as Static Testing
                   OR
   Requirement Review process.

Hi I anweerd it in  a differnt manner.

TEST LIFE cYCLE CONSITES OF THE Following phases and
tEsting is at 4th stage of the Life Cycle.

OF
1. REQUIRETMENT AS WHAT TO TEST
2. TEST PLANNING
3. TEST CASES
4. TESTING
5. REPORTING THE DEFECTS

Testing begins at the stage when the specifications r 
written,i.e. from testing the product specifications or 
product spec.

Begining of testing stage depens upon the software life 
cycle used in the companies.Suppose the company using 
waterfall model begins after developing (Coding) company 
using v model begins rite from the begining

As both the testing and development team will receive the 
specifications, the testing team will start to prepare 
Testplan parallely as the development team will be involved 
in developing the application.

After completion of testplan the work is assigned to each 
and every tester individualy to develop testcases for the 
build which has to be come from the devleopers.

Our test execution stage will start as soon as we receive 
the first Build that is after completion of the CODING 
PHASE.

And at this point the actual picture of testing will come.

Hope understood better.

Testing is a process nothing bu verification and validation,
The first part of testing as verification starts at the 
time of designing the specifications it self, and other 
part of testing as validation starts once the 
specifications are designed to release of the product or 
project.
Hence comin to stages of life cycle, in first two stages as 
requirements gathering and analasys verification plays its 
role.
in remaining stages validation plays its crucial role as 
validation in coding , testing, exeution, release.
