• C. verification of fields
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

Answer : B

Verification is testing that your product meets the specifications / requirements you have written.

“Did I build what I said I would?”.
Validation tests how well you addressed the business needs that caused you to write those requirements. It is also sometimes called acceptance or business testing.

“Did I build what I need?”

Reference  : Validation and Verification

Answer 2

This is very famous statement in s/w engg anyway to avoid any confusion we should just remember validation is done at developer site and verification can be done at client side so definitely after creating product we will check whether we are building product right 

so Validation means -->Are we building right product

 Verfication means ->Are we building product right 

so ans is B
