Software development is not that easy because we have requirements and we make software or applications according to our needs. No way. It requires a lot in it including the phases of development with a dedicated team to work on it from starting to successfully launch.
- Requirement Gathering & Planning:
Before starting any development, It must be required to get information about what the client’s requirements are. We must gather the requirements of what objective they want to serve, what functionality and features they want, Compatibility of software and apps, and other major things like technology in which we can build. Then we have to discuss the approach to make the application/software. This is how we have to manage the first phase of making application and software development which is Requirement Gathering & Planning.
- Design & Prototyping:
Designing and prototyping is something that gives us a chance to think from the user’s perspective. Before development, These is the steps that include the major decisions and analysis, etc. Designing is something that includes a major part of the technical side of the development.

- Development & Coding:
Here we are entering into the core technical and coding thing which is development and coding. In this phase, Your software development takes place technically with every sense of technology execution by developers. The front end side and Back end side of the development are defined only by this phase and It gives an internal body to the software/application. This is the phase that allows coders and developers to build the solution for the end users. Execution of the final product which we can call software or an application starts from this phase only.
- Testing & Quality Assurance:
Testing or we can say that the QA part, is the part that tests the coder and developers on their coding. Testing is something we can say that the ruling phase over development and testing we can say is the friend of the end user because the testing part never allows development to be sacrificed. Testing reacts like a teacher of the coder/developer and finds out all the bugs and loopholes of the development and it makes the software/application better in UX for end users. There are many types of testing, including manual and automated testing. We can use whatever as per the level of development.
- Deployment & Go-Live:
This is the phase that allows the end user to connect with the application/software. Deployment is a sign of successful development as well as successful testing. Deployment is what satisfies the end user’s usage of the application/software. Going live of the product is the after part of the deployment. And going live is the successive part of the development so that the users will get what they require for so long as a software/application.
- Post-Development Support & Maintenance:
This is what we come to the really main and underrated part of the development process which I think should be prioritized more by the clients if they are taking any software development services to any firm or developers because after the successful launch, the only thing that is left to backup and strengthen the software/application is support itself.
This way you can see above how the development life cycle is processed and how we got the software/application we wanted. Software development is a whole process that should be analysed on every stage with taking care of every phase thoroughly. Proper inspection and solution of every phase is the only thing which can bring us the best results in the end. This development life cycle is a manual document or we can say that guide for those who don’t have much knowledge regarding technology and software development. At Secret MindTech, We are excellent and proficient in any kind of software development or application development along with having expertise in bringing every software solution. We’d love to hear from you and are always ready to take your idea on the web or app to bring it vision for life.
