SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
Software development (also known as Application Development; Software Design, Designing Software, Software Engineering, Software Application Development, Enterprise Application Development, Platform Development) is the development of a software product in a planned and structured process. This software could be produced for a variety of purposes – the three most common purposes are to meet specific needs of a specific client/business, to meet a perceived need of some set of potential users (the case with commercial and open source software), or for personal use.
The term software development is often used to refer to the activity of software programming, which is the process of writing and maintaining the source code, whereas the broader sense of the term includes all that is involved between the conception of the desired software through to the final manifestation of the software. Therefore, software development may include research, new development, alteration, reuse, re-engineering, maintenance, or any other activities that result in software products. For larger software systems, usually developed by a team of people, some form of steps is typically followed to guide the stages of production of the software.
Especially the first phase in the software development process may involve many departments, including analysis, design, development, testing, implementation and performance review. There are several different approaches to software development, much like the various views of political parties toward governing a country. Some take a more structured, engineering-based approach to Developing business solutions, whereas others may take a more incremental approach, where software evolves as it is developed piece-by-piece. Most methodologies share some combination of the following stages of software development:
Design
Development
Testing
Implementation
Performance review
These stages are often referred to collectively as the Software Development Lifecycle, or SDLC. Different approaches to software development may carry out these stages in different orders, or devote
more or less time to different stages. The level of detail of the documentation produced at each stage of software development may also vary. These stages may also be carried out in turn (a “waterfall” based approach), or they may be repeated over various cycles or iterations (a more “extreme” approach). The more extreme approach usually involves less time spent on planning and documentation, and more time spent on coding and development of automated tests. More “extreme” approaches also promote continuous testing throughout the development lifecycle, as well as having a working (or bug-free) product at all times. More structured or “waterfall” based approaches attempt to assess the majority of risks and Develop a detailed plan for the software before implementation (coding) begins, and avoid significant design changes and re-coding in later stages of the software development lifecycle.
There are significant advantages and disadvantages to the various methodologies, and the best approach to solving a problem using software will often depend on the type of problem. If the problem is well understood and a solution can be effectively planned out ahead of time, the more “waterfall” based approach may work the best. If, on the other hand, the problem is unique (at least to the development team) and the structure of the software solution cannot be easily envisioned, then a more “extreme” incremental approach may work best. A software development process is a structure imposed on the development of a software product. Synonyms include software life cycle and software process. There are several models for such processes, each describing approaches to a variety of tasks or activities that take place during the process.
Summary:
Software development consists of many phases which are incorporated in the development process. Any kind of software in the development process will undergo the analysis stage, design stage, development stage, testing stage and the combination of implementation and performance review stages.
