Key Questions for Software Quality Assurance Audits
von itsbusiness AG
A company or project really benefits from implementing an independent QA audit based on TMMI, CMMI. Itsbusiness AG with more than 20 years’ experience in different industries, provide this service. Performing an audit and implementing the recommendations will result in improvements in the Process and reduce Risk for software development.
This audit will have the maximum effect at the start of a project but is still extremely useful during the development phase. We perform audits, both for projects and for whole organizations. The audit starts with itsbusiness AG’s Target Analysis, a guided questionnaire to target/analyse a project/organisation based on CMMI, TMMI and ISO Standards.
Our experts evaluate and analyse your answers and produce a customer specific action plan with options which will improve software QA in your organisation.
Target Analysis
Here are some of the key questions (from our extensive questionnaire of over 200 questions) we ask your company as part of our Target Analysis.
What are your biggest challenges with quality management right now?
Do you know where your weaknesses are? The questionnaire will identify these.
Do you have a defined measure of quality for purchased software?
It is equally important to know the quality of purchased software.
Do you have good quality inputs, in the form of the requirements of the system?
Without clear, accurate requirements, you have nothing to measure Quality against.
Are you testing against requirements?
If you aren’t testing against requirements, you can’t estimate how effective your testing is.
Is there sufficient automated regression testing in place to deal with updates to software?
When Regression testing doesn’t cover all main functionality, errors can be easily introduced by updates.
