what is the difference between verification and validation ?

Answer Posted / hitesh t patel

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, and walkthroughs and inspection
meetings.

Validation ensures that functionality, as defined in
requirements, is the intended behavior of the product;
validation typically involves actual testing and takes
place after verifications are completed.
