Verification and validation techniques checks whether the software or application developed meets the specifications and if it fulfills its intended purpose or not. Independent Verification and validation services are procedures used for checking that a product, service, or system meets requirements and specifications as laid out in the product specs  and that it fulfills the intended purpose. Independent testing and validation services are exercises carried out to ensure that the software built is of high quality and performs as it is expected to, every single time. The verification and validation techniques cover different aspects of product testing. Verification process ensures that software meets the defined specifications whereas validation techniques focus on whether the software meets the expectations and requirements of the end user. Verification and validation techniques helps keep software closely aligned with customers and business requirements at every stage.
