A Software Fit-For-Purpose Validation Task is a validation task for a software system to ensure that it is fit for its software system intended purpose.
- Context:
- It can answer the question “Was X what we should have built? Does X meet the high-level requirements?".
- ...

- In software development, software testing, verification, and validation are all important activities that aim to ensure that the software meets the intended requirements and is of high quality. However, they differ in their objectives, methods, and timing. Here is an overview of the similarities and differences between software testing, verification, and validation:

- Software Validation: Software validation is the process of evaluating the software system or its component(s) to ensure that it meets the user's needs and expectations and is fit for its intended purpose. Validation is a dynamic process that involves testing the software in its intended environment with real-world data and scenarios to ensure that it meets the user's needs and expectations. Validation is typically done at the end of the software development lifecycle, during user acceptance testing (UAT) or customer validation. The primary objective of validation is to ensure that the software meets the user's needs and is fit for its intended purpose.
- In summary, testing is focused on finding defects or problems in the software, verification is focused on ensuring that the software meets the specified requirements and standards, and validation is focused on ensuring that the software meets the user's needs and expectations. While they have different objectives, these activities are complementary and are all necessary for ensuring the quality and reliability of software.

- In software project management, software testing, and software engineering, verification and validation (V&V) is the process of checking that a software system meets specifications and requirements so that it fulfills its intended purpose. It may also be referred to as software quality control. It is normally the responsibility of software testers as part of the software development lifecycle. In simple terms, software verification is: "Assuming we should build X, does our software achieve its goals without any bugs or gaps?" On the other hand, software validation is: "Was X what we should have built? Does X meet the high-level requirements?"
