During one of my past internships I was part of a project where we had to program a website to monitor flooding. The verification of that project was essentially whether or not the website functioned. This consisted of learning the language, programming, debugging, and repeating the process. The validation came in the form of weekly informal meetings with the fire department that was funding the project who would eventually give us feedback on the website once it was up and running. Since this website wasn’t for public market neither verification nor validation was technically necessary but our team had inadvertently gone through all the essential steps.
