ConceptsExperience has shown that software quality must be built in at every stage of the Software Life Cycle. It cannot be added, inspected, or tested-in after the software has been built, by a separate SQA staff. This seminar focuses on the use of a set of "best practices" software metrics that can be used to make assessments throughout the software life cycle as to whether software quaity goals are being met. This tutorial presnts a practicle guide on how to start taking advantage of these "best practices" metrics that have successfully been used by many SQA staffs.
Participants will learn:- An introduction and overview of SQA. This includes the purpose, goals, and activities performed by the SQA organization. This section also includes a discussion of the major parts of the SQA Plan
- A discussion of the software life cycle, from Requirements through Maintenance. For each phase of the life cycle, the following topics will be addressed:
- Activities performed in the phase
- Products developed in the phase
- Reviews conducted in the phase
- Software Metrics applicable to the phase
- A set of government/industry "best practices" metrics with numerous examples, variations, and case studies. These metrics cover the entire life cycle, and can track the, quality, productivity, and status of the various life cycle phases. These metrics have successfully been used by SQA staffs.
