Do I need a "Stabilizing Phase" in the software development cycle ?

As follows : Break the development cycle into phases: a) Envisioning phase b) Planning phasec) Developing phase d) Stabilizing phase.





Usually code is fouled up after it has been successfully developed. So "stabilizing phase" sounds like it could work.

The stabilizing one is the phase at which after you have been testing and finding bugs you have gone without finding new ones. It is not a great thing to skip because you may have introduced bugs fixing old ones, which is what this phase detects.
