0.0

This book tells you how to meet people's expectations with quality planning, software quality, automation, execution, validation, verification, measurement and analysis, and support. It is divided into four major parts: Part I introduce all the major topics and covers quality planning Part II is devoted to software testing topics Part III covers quality assurance alternatives and techniques (Including: inspection and formal verification) Part IV covers other major topics, including measurement and feedback, quality assessment and improvement. The linkage and integration of these diverse topics is an important feature: The author compares testing to other quality assurance alternatives and related techniques. Special Feature Brings together all the major topics in software testing, quality assurance, and related activities in one coherent framework Virtually everyone in modern society interacts with software systems (industries, office, home, ATMs, Internet, etc) so this is a truly global and all pervasive technology intended at professional not only in the software industry but in ALL industries, including engineers, designers, planners, marketers, and managers; and for universities and graduate students Quality is the one critical factor that determine the success or failure of software products in today's competitive market and the essential requirement for the survival of most industries and organizations in today's society
