  12. What is Software? • What is Software? • More than computer programs • Computer programs, procedures, and possibly associated documentation and data pertaining to the operation of a computer system. • Two major types of Software: • Generic –Stand alone, sold on open market • Customized –For specific customer

  13. What is Software Quality? • Software Quality (as per ISO/ IEC 9126): The totality of functionality and features of a software product that contribute to its ability to satisfy stated or implied needs. • Software Quality (as IEEE Std 610): The degree to which a component, system or process meets specified requirements and/or user/customer needs and expectations.

  14. What is Software Quality? • According to ISO9126, software quality consists of: • Functionality • Reliability • Usability • Efficiency • Maintainability • Portability

  15. Introduction • What’s the main challenges of software development now-a-days? • High Cost • Difficult to deliver on Time • Low Quality

  16. Introduction • What is Software Quality Assurance? • What is Software Testing? • What are the differences between them?

  17. Introduction • Software Quality Assurance (SQA): • Defined as a planned and systematic approach to the evaluation of the quality of and adherence to software product standards, processes, and procedures. • An umbrella activity that is applied throughout the software process. • Consists of a means of monitoring the software engineering processes and methods used to ensure quality. • An effective approach to produce high quality software.

  18. Introduction • Software Testing: • Software Testing is the process of executing a system or component under specified conditions with the intent of finding defects/bugs and to verify that it satisfies specified requirements. • Main goal ==> To detect bugs • Have different levels • Static testing vs. Dynamic testing • Manual testing vs. Automated testing

  19. QA vs. Testing Software Quality Assurance Software Testing Product-oriented activity Oriented to bug detection • Process-oriented activity • Oriented to bug prevention

  20. Introduction • What is the COSTof a bug?

  21. Introduction • Failure Example 01 • Flight Ariane 5 (Most Expensive Computer Bug in History) On June 4, 1996, the rocket Ariane 5 tore itself apart 37 seconds after launch because of a malfunction in the control software making the fault most expensive computer bug in history. ==> mission critical issue

  22. Introduction • Failure Example 02 • Lethal X-Rays :Therac-25 system Therac-25 was a radiation therapy machine produced by Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) in 1986. But initially lot of people died because of massive overdose of radiation. And this is happen because of a software bug. ==> safety critical issue

  23. Introduction • Why do we need to study this course? • What are the outcomes of this course?

  24. Summary • Thanks a lot for your attention. • Any questions??!!?

  25. Welcome to the course Software Quality Assurance
