What is V-Model.

The V-Shaped life cycle is a sequential path of execution of processes. Each phase must be completed before the next phase begins. Testing is emphasized in this model more so than the waterfall model though. The testing procedures are developed early in the life cycle before any coding is done, during each of the phases preceding implementation.

Requirements begin the life cycle model just like the waterfall model. Before development is started, a system test plan is created. The test plan focuses on meeting the functionality specified in the requirements gathering.

The high-level design phase focuses on system architecture and design. An integration test plan is created in this phase as well in order to test the pieces of the software systems ability to work together.

The low-level design phase is where the actual software components are designed, and unit tests are created in this phase as well.

The implementation phase is, again, where all coding takes place. Once coding is complete, the path of execution continues up the right side of the V where the test plans developed earlier are now put to use.

V-Shaped Life Cycle ModelVShapedModel

Advantages

  • Simple and easy to use.
  • Each phase has specific deliverables.
  • Higher chance of success over the waterfall model due to the development of test plans early on during the life cycle.
  • Works well for small projects where requirements are easily understood.

Disadvantages

  • Very rigid, like the waterfall model.
  • Little flexibility and adjusting scope is difficult and expensive.
  • Software is developed during the implementation phase, so no early prototypes of the software are produced.
  • Model doesn’t provide a clear path for problems found during testing phases.

I don't write many comments, however i did some searching and wound up here "What is V-Model.". And I do have a few questions for you if it's allright.

Could it be just me or does it give the impression like a few
of the comments come across like written by brain dead individuals?
:-P And, if you are posting on other online sites, I'd like to follow anything new you have to post. Could you list of all of all your communal sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
