If anything is missing or not understandable then quality assurance team meets with the stakeholders to better understand the detail knowledge of requirement.

Testing team also prepare the required test data for the testing. When the test cases are prepared then they are reviewed by quality assurance team.

    Test environment setup is the vital part of the STLC. Basically test environment decides the conditions on which software is tested. This is independent activity and can be started along with test case development. In this process the testing team is not involved. either the developer or the customer creates the testing environment.
  5. Test Execution:
    After the test case development and test environment setup test execution phase gets started. In this phase testing team start executing test cases based on prepared test cases in the earlier step.
  6. Test Closure:
    This is the last stage of STLC in which the process of testing is analyzed.
