Software development is the process of
developing software through successive phases in an
orderly way. This process includes not only the actual
writing of code but also the preparation of requirements
and objectives, the design of what is to be coded, and
confirmation that what is developed has met objectives.
Before systems development methods came into
being, the development of new systems or products was
often carried out by using the experience and intuition
of management and technical personnel. However, the
complexity of modern systems and computer products long
ago made the need clear for some kind of orderly
development process.
Typical phases of software development:
1) Identification of
required software
2) Analysis of the software
requirements
3) Detailed specification of the
software requirements
4) Software
design
5) Programming
6)
Testing
7) Maintenance
In general, the development of commercial
software is usually a result of demand in the
marketplace, while enterprise software
development generally arises from a need or a
problem within the enterprise
environment. |
