    Why Software Testing is Important in the Software Development Life Cycle?

    by Daniel Lee184 ·

    Recently, I was reading this blog, (URL removed) and a thought came in mind that why we need it. We all know how software testing is very important, but the question may arise as that why it is essential?

    So, I would like to know what are your thoughts about it. Why software testing has become an integral part in software development process.

      Is this something new?

      We did testing back in the 1970’s. I wouldn’t write it’s a new thing.

      I once had a 28 day project. It was an embedded project so from board design to final software was 28 days total. Testing began at about day 10 when we had a handwired system ready.

      On the 28th day, it was done, hundreds of boards programmed and installed.

      The software group didn’t want the task but then wanted to discuss software development life cycle past day 28. I agreed as long as they would pay my salary. They wouldn’t so we never met to discuss this.

      Years later the product is still out there and working fine.
