Software quality assurance is protected by release judgment
The most important thing to guarantee the quality of software is to correctly judge the release of software . If you can stop releasing poor quality software and release only good quality software , as a result, only good quality software will be on the market, so you can guarantee the quality of the software. Software release is equivalent to shipping in the world language of general products, so release judgment is the shipping judgment of software products.
So how do you only to be released good software quality do you? There are two things you need to do to release only good quality software. The first release is available quality goods for determining whether it is in soft quality criteria , the second is to determine whether may be the release mechanism of the release decision is seen. Father Gutara has used four criteria and four mechanisms to determine the release of software .
Since what is required for software quality changes depending on the market situation of the product, the times and the background of the technology, there will be no correct answer that applies to the best judgment criteria and judgment method in any case . I don’t even know if Gutara’s father’s method is the best. Even so, the method that Father Gutara came up with may be helpful for those who actually judge the release of software, so I will introduce it a little more concretely.
The most important activity for product shipment judgment to improve quality is not unique to software. Shipment judgment is called the last bastion of quality assurance, and it is the most important activity of the quality assurance organization.
The criteria for software quality is from the perspective of finding software with poor quality.
In other words , releasing good quality software means not releasing bad quality software . Does it sound like a mere word game? Well, there is also such a side. However, the means to release good quality software is quite difficult because there are so many things to think about. But the idea of not releasing bad quality software is simple. All you have to do is to investigate various things before releasing bad software and follow the rule of not releasing bad software, which is easy to understand as a methodology.
However, unlike mass-produced products that make the same product at the factory, it is difficult to check the quality of single- product software at the time of release . As I wrote in another article , in the case of mass-produced products , it has been decided that this should be correct . Sometimes called a golden sample. If it is the same as the golden sample, it can be judged that the quality is good, so various inspections and measurements are performed before shipping, and if there is no difference from the golden sample, it is a good product and shipped, and if the difference is large, it is judged as a defective product. You can take the method of not shipping.
However, there is no such thing as a golden sample in the software of one-off products . Although there are required specifications, the required specifications are not the finished software equivalent to the golden sample, so the method of measuring the difference from the golden sample and judging it as a defective product is easy to judge the quality of the software. can not use.
There are four quality judgments: test quality, residual bugs, process quality, and product quality.
The quality of software do you want to determine how I may or bad is good? It’s a difficult problem, but we decide the indicators to check the quality of the software, decide the criteria for judgment for each indicator, and if it does not meet the criteria, we judge that the software is of poor quality and stop the release. When you think about it, you can see what you need to do a little more concretely.
Of course, for software, such as when the software is used, who uses it, and what kind of effect it will have if there is a problem with the software. The level of quality required varies widely. However , I think the method of determining whether the quality of software has reached the required level will be similar to some extent.
Father Gutara checks the status of the test quality , considers the impact of residual bugs on the market, checks the status of the product quality of the software , checks the status of the process quality used to develop the software, and confirms the status of the software. We have judged whether the quality of the wear is good. These four are the four criteria that my father Gutara has used .
Judgment is made by deciding the type of release, the person in charge of judgment and the judgment method, and using the worksheet.
Even if there are judgment criteria, the actual operation will not proceed well unless the process for making the judgment is decided exactly. For example, if the software that judges the release is the first release for the software, it is necessary to gather the people concerned and hold a meeting to listen to the opinions of people from various positions and make a comprehensive judgment, and add functions and bugs. If the release is also intended to be fixed, it may be decided by one person . In addition, the criteria for judgment have changed depending on whether the type of software used to judge the release is the official version, the evaluation version, or the beta version . In order to respond to software release judgments in various situations, to decide the type of release, decide the person responsible for judging the release, decide the release judgment method, and make the actual release judgment according to those decisions. You need to make a decision using the Release Judgment Worksheet . These four are the four judgment mechanisms used by Father Gutara.
