Verification and Validation are key concepts in software testing. Verification ensures the product is being built correctly by checking documents, design, and code usually through reviews and inspections. Validation, on the other hand, ensures the right product is being built by actually testing the software to meet user requirements. In simple terms, Verification answers “Are we building the product right?” while Validation asks “Are we building the right product?” Both are essential steps taught in manual testing training, where testers learn to verify specifications and validate functionality through hands-on testing techniques without the use of automation tools.
