Verification and Validation
Software Development and Engineering Practices
Verification and validation (V&V) are complementary quality-assurance processes in engineering and software development: verification checks that a product was built correctly according to specifications ('did we build it right'), while validation checks that the product actually meets user needs ('did we build the right thing'). V&V is standard practice in fields like software engineering, aerospace, medical devices, and systems engineering to catch defects and ensure requirements are met.
