Full life cycle development



Can someone please explain this term? I know it means requiremsnts
gathering, design, development and testing, but is there a specific
methodology/tool, like UML or PRINCE, or is it just the latest buzzword
that recruiters are using to mean "every stage of the design and
development process" - which any analyst/programmer worth his/her salt
has been fully aware of for years?

Cheers,
Peter Royle
