The purpose of software quality assurance is to provide visibility to management on the processes being followed and the work products being produced in the organization. It is a systematic enquiry into the way that things are done in the organization, and involves conducting audits of projects, suppliers and departments.

Contemporary Educational Psychology, 1987
The content and limitations of currently used software evaluation/selection forms are discussed. Four major forms are described, and a review of the literature suggesting improvements of evaluation forms is provided. Finally, a new form is proposed that could be used for all grade levels of instruction and that considers the identified weaknesses and ...

Derivation of local software quality metrics (software quality circles)
Software: Practice and Experience, 1988AbstractSoftware is a product in serious need of quality control technology. Major effort notwithstanding, software engineering has produced few metrics for aspects of software quality that have the potential of being universally applicable. The present paper suggests that, although universal metrics are elusive, metrics that are applicable and useful ...

A Software Quality Improvement Program
ACM SIGSOFT Software Engineering Notes, 1978In late 1976, the NCR Corporation undertook a large scale Quality Improvement Program for a major set of systems software. That software set included some 103 separate products totaling 1.3 million source lines. It included several operating systems, several compilers, peripheral software, data utilities and telecommunications handlers. This paper will

IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, 1990
The costs of quality for software, a methodology for the collection of costs, and how the costs of quality can be used to point the way toward quality improvement and significant cost reductions are discussed. Root cause analysis and corrective action using software costs of quality are described.

Software Quality, Software Process, and Software Testing
1995Abstract Software testing should play a major role in the definition and improvement of software development processes, because testing is the most precise, most easily measured, and most easily controlled part of the software lifecycle. However, unless testing goals are clearly related to true measurements of software quality, the testing may ...

The Meaning of Quality in Software
1989The popular view of quality is still a subjective concept which perpetuates the idea that the more elaborate and complex products somehow offer a higher level of quality than their humbler counterparts. Whilst this misconception is well understood amongst ‘quality’ professionals the temptation remains to equate sophistication, instead of simplicity of ...

Producing high performing, reliable and secure software is a challenging problem in the software industry. An important element in achieving this goal lies in the automation of the software development process, which currently is primarily manual. However, progress in program specification, verification, and testing is more rapid today than ever before.
