How to test: Testing is such a very detailed science now.. There is functional testing, unit testing,integration testing,user acceptance testing etc.
Unit testing is : to check that your code is working fine in your environment..each developer has his environment and the code should work there.
integration testing or development testing , as I understand, is testing in a common environment , shared by all developers.
funcational testing is to check all the functionalities of the product and is better done by QA team.. There can also be performance testing..to check for example, that each report runs withing acceptable response time.
documentation: that again can be for all phases of the project:
e.g. design document, technical design of various aspects of the project, coding standards document to set standards for all developers to use, functional documents, user training documents-divided in several parts ..e.g. how to do all the various tasks needed by the system..deployment document for how to do deployment..etc
most projects have QA or testing teams..and of course the developers should be doing at least unit testing allways.
