The RPA Lifecycle encompasses several stages of the automation process, from BOT creation to bot execution.

The following is a list of them:

• Discovery:  The discovery phase of the RPA lifecycle is the first step. The RPA process architect evaluates the client's needs in this phase. Then it's decided whether or not the procedure can be automated. If the process can be automated, the RPA analyst team may consult with the RPA architect team to assess the process's complexity.
• Solution Design: The steps to automate the process are defined based on the requirements. In conjunction with the process architect, the RPA technical architect creates a Process Definition Document (PDD) that contains information about the entire process. They adhere to the development methodology and devise a plan to automate certain tasks in order to eliminate manual labor as much as possible.
  After all of the requirements have been met, the next stage is to decide on a budget, the number of people who will work on the project, the amount of time that will be spent on it, and so on. The analyst team then constructs a flowchart to visualize the flow of operations, which aids in the selection of the appropriate processes for automation. The RPA tool is used to begin the development of bots and automate tasks after the procedures have been chosen.
• Development: The RPA developer builds scripts/bots to automate tasks using RPA tools at this phase. There are a variety of RPA tools on the market. Following the previously created PDD, automation scripts/bots are generated. There is no demand for coding in most cases. However, depending on the duties to be automated, this may alter.
• User Acceptance Tests: The RPA development team PUTS the bots they've created to the test in this phase. These bots are put through their paces in a test setting to see how they can help users automate specific chores. If the testing phase is completed successfully, the process moves on to the next level. Furthermore, if the testing fails, it is returned to the development phase, where RPA developers evaluate and correct any issues discovered during the testing phase.
• Deployment and Maintenance: Only when the development and testing phases have been finished are the bots deployed into the production environment. Users can UTILIZE them to automate their tasks when the deployment procedure is completed. If a PROBLEM with the bots persists, such as bots that do not automate, they are forwarded to the RPA development and testing team. The bots will be analyzed again by the development team, and the issues will be resolved.
• Bots Execution: After the bots have been deployed, this phase includes the bots' execution. Bots are also examined to guarantee that the implementation is CARRIED out correctly.
