How is software inspection performed? Who all participate in the process? What role do individuals play during inspection? To understand and get all the necessary details about inspection during testing, check out our article on Inspection Roles, Participants, and Process in Testing.

During the Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC) the importance of software inspection is immense. It allows early defect/fault detection and offers the team members a platform for sharing knowledge and information. Moreover, during software inspection, the identification of defects is coupled with process improvement strategies.

A method used to find defects is known as Fagan Inspection. It is a structured process that involves detecting defects in development documents like programming code, specifications, designs, etc. during the various phases of software development.

Audit & Inspection are two methods of software review and assessment that are frequently used by the Quality Assurance team to monitor the quality of the software product as well as to improve its effectiveness and performance. Therefore, to help you understand their significance in STLC here is a detailed comparison of the two.

Termed as the first stage of Software Testing Life Cycle, Software Verification helps ensure the precision of the end product by conducting a thorough software review, inspection, & evaluating documents, plans, requirements & specifications, to determine whether the software meets the specified requirements or not.
