Software Development Life Cycle

 Hi Friends!! Interested in developing software projects? Need a website for your business? Want to develop an app of your idea?

Yes!. So before developing, let us understand what are the different stages to develop software.

Below 7 stages will help in developing a quality software product.

  1. Requirements Gathering 

  2. Analysis

  3. Design

  4. Coding

  5. Testing

  6. Implementation

  7. Maintenance


Requirements gathering

If you want to make your product. Understand what product you want to develop. Plan the product. Gather the content required for making the product.

Ex: Want to develop a website for school. Plan the website, like website should contain pages for home, about, courses, gallery, contact. Get the content of mission, vision, gallery, etc of school.

If you are working for a client(who needs software) product, then understand the client requirement. Ask questions to understand the product like what functionalities should the product contain?collect all his requirements and have a basic plan for the product.

Analysis

  1. Now analyze whether the requirements are feasible

  2. Think about the cost of the project

  3. Scheduling the project deadline.


Design

      1. UI UX Design

Design the logo using Photoshop or similar tools. Design the prototype of the application using Adobe Xd or similar tools. Show the prototype of the application to the client and get approved.

      1. Database Design

Database design is the organization of data according to a database model. Determine what data must be stored and how the data elements interrelate.

Ex:- Application forms need a database to store information of applied users. So the database can be designed as storing the data in the table of the Mysql database.

coding

This is the main phase where we have to write the actual code and develop the software. Develop the same software as per prototype.

Testing

Testing the software. Check whether all the requirements are developed. Test the software manually by using it. Also, use automation techniques to test the product. If it has bugs(errors) report it to development.

implementation

Making the product live. Like deploying the app in play store, hosting the website. Now users can see the product and use it.

Maintenance

While users using the product if any bugs are seen. It will be reported in the maintenance phase. And bugs will be rectified.
