development team

Software building group

A development team is a group of people working together to build software, products, or systems.

In software contexts, it typically includes programmers, designers, and testers collaborating on a project: The development team shipped the update ahead of schedule.

The term implies ongoing work rather than one-off tasks—teams develop products through iterative cycles of building and refining.
