The above V Model shows the optimum testing process, where test preparation commences as soon as the Requirements Catalogue is produced. System Test planning commenced at an early stage, and for this reason, the System test will benefit from Quality initiatives throughout the project lifecycle.
The responsibility for testing between the Project & Software Qualtiy Assurance (S.Q.A.) is as follows:
