The player who is serving must stand behind the baseline, between the center mark and the sideline. A foot fault takes place when your foot touches the ground on - or forward of - the service line before you strike the ball.

During your service motion, if your feet touch the baseline of the court or touch the middle line (the bump in the middle of the baseline), it is called a foot fault and the serve is a fault. The serve is supposed to be delivered from behind the baseline and from one side of the court. Your feet are only allowed to touch the baseline after the ball has completed contact with the racket head.

It's when you have the ball and you move the foot you landed on. So if you caught the ball, put down your left foot as you landed and then put down your right foot, moving you left foot afterwards would be a fault.

A foot-fault is when the player serving steps over the back boundary line while in the process of serving. You must stay within all out of bound's lines when serving.
