Learning objectives
•
SDLC, Software Development Life Cycle is a process used by
software industry to design, develop and test high quality
software.
•
It is also called as Software development process.
•
SDLC is a framework defining tasks performed at each step in the
software development process.
Software Development Life Cycle
•
This unit is about how to go about building a software system.
•
We are interested in medium to large complex systems of
software
•
We are mainly interested in the
architecture
or
overall form of
design
.
