  1. Method, Platform and Quality decisionssome recent practical experiences(good and not so good)Philip Verstraaten18 June 2009

  2. Overview • Background • What is quality? • Scenarios • Method decisions • Platform decisions • Methods, platforms & quality • Testing • Thoughts for the future • Questions - discussion

  3. Background • My focus is on enterprise solution and product development • Passion to deliver a quality professional result • Questions and some answers • Structured Analysis (A) Design (D) Programming (P) • Object Oriented A – D - P • Information Engineering • Software Engineering - Computer Science • SDLC – PMLC – ITIL – CMM – TDD... • Balance quality and creativity in manufactured results

  4. What is quality? • Quality management: product quality & how to achieve it • Quality control: systems to meet or exceed customer requirements • Quality assurance: processes to provide confidence in a product's suitability for its intended purpose • Acceptance criteria for end results: • comply with customer needs • within specified timeframes • customer management effective • internalised • maintainable • comply with standards • re-usable • zero defects – bugs • no rework – re-architecture

  5. Scenarios Enterprise Jade solution with many applications Start up product development No source code controls, no SDLC, PMLC, no quality culture, coding focused Need to meet international industry standards Select methods, platform as a basis to re-organise and resource and to provide quality as defined earlier

  6. Method decisions Method: end-to-end processes, techniques, tools, templates to achieve a specific desired outcome Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC): Requirements to delivery processes Project Life Cycle Management (PLCM): management of governance and the SDLC process Theories vs practical application and use Agile, waterfall, scrum, hybrid, etc Agile in a waterfall way - Issues with $ sign off

  7. Method decisions: selection Selection criteria: appropriate for projects, complexity, products, services, size, packages, tailored? Speed to market. Integral quality gates Aligned with other methods (ITIL, CMMI, ..) How long will methods be around? The base processes are still the same Practical application may be different Start high level with continuous improvement or industry standard where available

  13. Platform decisions What is a platform? Development technologies, frameworks, libraries, languages, tools for testing-source control – build management, etc Industry standards A tool set under change Jade, Java, .NET IBM, Oracle, Microsoft, etc

  14. Platforms: selection criteria Evolution of the tools Available people resources Industry acceptance/adoption Integral quality considerations Future proof? Investments required Co-existence with existing platform(s)

  15. Methods, platforms, quality Methods SDLC – have basic processes, techniques, artifacts defined & documented PMLC – Prince2 or PMI Platforms Hybrid platforms through middleware, services Quality CMMI – start from the bottom Improvement model for each of the above People

  16. Testing --------

  17. Thoughts for the future Robust processes are essential to achieve quality Automate where possible People development Change appears to go slow Shift $ from rework to integral quality Corporate investment policies constrain the options

  18. Questions - discussion
