Software Quality Assurance Plan The purpose of the Software Quality Assurance

Software Quality Assurance Plan

The purpose of the Software Quality Assurance Plan

(SQAP) is to define the techniques, procedures, and methodologies that will be used at project to assure timely delivery of the software that meets specified requirements within project resources.

Software Quality Assurance Plan

Set common templates (standards)
Define the sequence of actions
Ensure

that standards and processes are used
Conduct an analysis of completed projects
Analyze and learn, using the defect data
Use what you have learned

What is Quality?

How do you understand the term quality of software

product?
Is it rather about conformance to requirements?
Is it rather about fitness of use?

What is Quality?

Verification – act of checking that a software product

conforms to its requirements and specifications.
Validation - act of checking that finished software product meets users’ requirements and specifications.

Fault, failure and error Fault/defect – a condition that may cause

Fault, failure and error

Fault/defect – a condition that may cause a

failure in a system, also called a bug.
Failure/problem – the inability of a system to perform a function according to its specification, result of a defect.
Error – a mistake made by software engineer or programmer

Software Project Metrics

Tools for anyone involved in software engineering to understand

varying aspects of the code base, and the project progress.
They are different from just testing for errors because they can provide a wider variety of information about the following aspects of software systems:
Quality of the software, different metrics look at different aspects of quality
Schedule of the software project on the whole. e some metrics look at functionality and some look at documents produced.
Cost of the software project. Includes maintenance, research and typical costs associated with a project.
Size/Complexity of the software system. This can be either based on the code or at the macro-level of the project and it’s dependency on other projects.

Software Metrics Reduce cost by 15% - 20% by just measuring.

Software Metrics

Reduce cost by 15% - 20% by just measuring.
Create

baseline of quality and productivity and compare against industry averages.
Pinpoint opportunities for improvement.
Ability to measure initiatives and measure ROI.

Software Project Metrics Project metrics: Completed activities budget Actual budget ratio

Software Project Metrics

Project metrics:
Completed activities budget
Actual budget ratio of the planned

budget ( Budget(actual) / Budget(planned) )
Dispersion of costs (Budget(actual) - Budget(planned) )
Schedule execution ( Effort (actual) / Effort (planned) )
Dispersion of schedule ( Effort (actual) - Effort (planned) )
Schedule delays ( ∑ delay time )
Coefficient of closed tasks ( closed tasks / planned tasks)
Productivity

Requirements Metrics:
Frequency of change in the total requirements set
Rate of

introduction of new requirements
Traceability

Percentage of defects as requirement as a root cause
Number of requirement-related change requests
Requirement Stability Index : 1- ((No of changed + No of deleted + No of added) / Total no of Initial requirements) x100

What is Testing of SW?

Maintaining a set of techniques for detecting

and correcting errors in a software products
(testing process can be automated)

Testing should be applied to all artifacts of software projects development.

Testing Test Plan - a document describing the scope, approach, resources

Testing

Test Plan - a document describing the scope, approach, resources and

schedule of intended test activities. It identifies amongst others test items, the features to be tested, the testing tasks, who will do each task, degree of tester independence, the test environment, the test design techniques and entry and exit criteria to be used, and the rationale for their choice, and any risks requiring contingency planning. It is a record of the test planning process.

Master Test Plan: A single high-level test plan for a project/product that

unifies all other test plans.
