Accepted Answer

Software development life cycle (SDLC) is a process used to design, develop, and test software applications.

SDLC consists of several phases: requirements gathering, design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance.
Each phase has specific activities and deliverables.
For example, in the requirements gathering phase, the product requirements are identified and documented.
In the design phase, the system architecture and detailed design specifications are created.
During development, the code is written and unit tested.
Testing involves various types such as unit testing, integration testing, system testing, and user acceptance testing.
Once the software is tested and approved, it is deployed to production.
Maintenance involves bug fixes, enhancements, and updates throughout the software's lifecycle.
