STLC mainly consist of 2 phases
1)Verification &
2)Validation
Verification is the Reviewing part,in which
tester has to review all documents related to URS(User
requirement specification),SRS(System requirement
specification),FRS(Function Requirement specification) etc.
Validation is the actual testing
phase,where tester has to perform testing as per the test
planning by using Black-Box & White box testing.there are
different validation method like,
1)Unit testing
2)Integration testing
3)function testing
4)System testing
5)Acceptance testing.
