Development testing is the practice of verifying that code behaves as intended during the software creation process, including unit tests, integration tests, and manual checks performed by developers before code reaches QA or production. It is used by software engineers to catch bugs early, validate logic, and support safe refactoring, often through automated test suites run continuously as code changes.
