Verification or validation?
QuizEasyAsked in: Accenture, TCS
A banking app passes every test written from its specification (the written description of what the app must do). When staff at a bank branch start using it, they find it cannot do a task they perform every day, because the specification never mentioned that task.
Which kind of checking would have caught this problem?
- Validation: checking that the product meets the real needs of its users
- Verification: checking that the product meets its specified requirements
- Regression testing
- Static analysis of the source code
