STLC
STLC stands for “Software Testing Life Cycle.” It is a process that outlines the steps involved in the testing of a software application or system. The STLC process typically includes the following steps:
- Planning: This involves defining the testing strategy and approach, and creating a test plan that outlines the testing activities that will be performed.
- Analysis: This involves reviewing the requirements and design of the software to identify the test cases that need to be developed.
- Design: This involves developing the test cases and test data that will be used to test the software.
- Execution: This involves executing the test cases and collecting the results.
- Reporting and analysis: This involves analyzing the test results and reporting any defects or issues that are identified.
- Closure: This involves reviewing the testing results, documenting any issues that were identified, and closing the testing phase.
The STLC process helps to ensure that the testing of a software application or system is thorough and systematic, and that any issues are identified and addressed in a timely manner.
