    Study Notes

    SQA Architecture

    • SQA (Software Quality Assurance) is an activity to measure knowledge of maintaining software quality throughout the development life cycle.

    Classes of SQA

    • Divided into 6 classes:
      • Pre-project components
      • Components of project life cycle activities assessment
      • Components of infrastructure error prevention and improvement
      • Components of software quality management
      • Components of standardization, certification, and SQA system assessment
      • Organizing for SQA – the human components

    Pre-project Components

    • Defined before executing the project
    • Activities include:
      • Ensuring resources, schedule, and budget
      • Defining development and quality plans
      • Aligning perspectives of developer and project owner

    Components of Project Life Cycle Activities Assessment

    • Divided into 2 stages:
      • Development life cycle stage
      • Operation-maintenance stage
    • Development life cycle stage activities:
      • Detecting design and programming errors
      • Sub-classes:
        • Reviews
        • Expert opinions
        • Software testing
    • Operation-maintenance stage activities:
      • Specialized maintenance component
      • Improving functionality maintenance tasks
      • Assuring quality of project parts performed by subcontractors and external participants

    Components of Infrastructure Error Prevention and Improvement

    • Main activity: eliminating or reducing errors
    • Applied to entire organization

    Components of Software Quality Management

    • Focused on:
      • Controlling development process and maintenance
      • Introducing managerial support to prevent and minimize schedule and budget failures

    Components of Standardization, Certification, and SQA System Assessment

    • Implementing international professional and managerial standards for the organization
