V-Model

 


The V-Model is an extension of the Waterfall Model that incorporates testing into each stage of the software development life cycle (SDLC). It is called the V-Model because it forms a "V" shape, with testing activities starting at the top of the V and continuing down through the development process.

In manual testing, the V-Model is often used to create a clear and structured approach to testing. Testers work closely with developers and other stakeholders to ensure that each stage of the SDLC is properly tested before moving on to the next stage.

The V-Model involves creating test plans, test cases, and test scripts early in the development process, and executing them in a structured manner. Testing is integrated into each stage of the SDLC, from requirements gathering to deployment and maintenance.

The V-Model is known for its emphasis on early and continuous testing, which can help to catch defects and issues earlier in the development process. It also helps to ensure that testing is integrated into the development process, rather than being an afterthought. However, the V-Model can be more complex and time-consuming than other testing models, and it may not be suitable for all types of projects.
