 Hello, welcome to the session on Software Quality Assurance Processes, Product Characteristics, Software Quality Assurance Tasks, Goals and Metrics. At the end of this session, the students will be able to describe Software Quality Assurance Processes and the Product Characteristics, Software Quality Assurance Tasks, Goals and Metrics. Software Quality Assurance Plan, Edit and Review. After completion of the phases of the testing, the results looked good. No significant issues occurred in the project. You managed the project well and you were proud of the success of this project. Unfortunately, the management board thinks differently. You don't have any evidence to show that you managed this project well. You asked an advisor for a solution. Here is the answer. So please conduct the test manager review or the quality assurance and this is a good evidence to prove your quality of our work. The answer is a start, but you will still have the following questions. What is the test management review and edit? Why do we need the Software Quality Assurance in the test management process? How to implement the quality assurance? What is the test management reviews and edit? Test management review is also known as the Software Quality Assurance. It focuses more on the software processes rather than the software work products. Quality Assurance is a set of activities that are designed to ensure that the project manager follows the standard process which is already predefined. In other words, the quality assurance makes sure the test manager is doing the right thing in the right way. Edit is an examination of the work products and related information to assess whether the standard process was followed or not. To understand this, consider the following scenario. The project handles various different stages. As a test manager, you are the person who takes the charge of these activities. However, you are at the highest position in the project team who will review your tasks and check the project management activities or executed to the highest standard. Well, the Software Quality Assurance editor is the person who reviews and checks the project management activities and are executed to the highest possible standards. Only through the result of this review, the management board can evaluate the quality of your project handling. So this is the reason why we do need management review or the Software Quality Assurance in the test management process. So these are the different stages, risk analysis, estimation, running, organization, planning. So these are the different stages that we need to follow in measuring the Software Quality Assurance. Benefits of Software Quality Assurance. These are the major, the benefits of Software Quality Assurance that is monitoring and improving the process. Make sure that the standards and the procedures are followed and preventing the quality problems from the occurring and how to implement the quality assurance. So develop a Software Quality Assurance plan, preparation and review the process. The step one to develop a Software Quality Assurance plan. Testing activity needs a test plan, likewise Software Quality Assurance activity also needs a plan which is called a Software Quality Assurance plan. The goal of Software Quality Assurance plan is to craft a plan, planning process and the procedure to ensure that the products are manufactured or the service delivered by the organizations are of exceptional quality. During the project planning, the test manager makes a Software Quality Assurance plan where the Software Quality Assurance audit is scheduled periodically. In the Software Quality Assurance plan, the test manager should do the as following, that is to identify the roles and responsibility of the Software Quality Assurance team. Most of the work products, that is Software Quality Assurance editor will review and edit, create the schedule to perform the Software Quality Assurance tasks. The next is to define the standards or the methodologies. To review the management activities against the standard process, you should do the following steps. Define the policies and procedures intended to prevent defects from occurring in the management process. Document the policies and procedures, inform the train and train staff to use it. So we need to define the standards or the methodologies. Review the process, review the project activities to verify the compilance with the defined management process. In the management review, the Software Quality Assurance members have to perform five quality reviews, Software Quality Assurance reviews as following. The review time for Software Quality Assurance that depends on the Projects and Development lifecycle model. And in case of the projects, the review schedule should be the following. The review that is the review of project planning, review of software requirement analysis, review of the test design, review before release and review the project closing. So this is the review process. So in each Software Quality phase, the Software Quality Assurance members that provide a consultation and the review of the project plans, work product and procedures regarding the compilance to defined organizational policy and standard procedures. In the adit, the Software Quality Assurance member should use Software Quality Assurance review checklist. So after you walk through the three steps of the Software Quality Implementation, you have the result of the test management review and the adit. So these are the different phases, the requirement, test design, test execution, test reports and closing. So once you walk through these steps, then the Software Quality Assurance Implementation have the result of the test management reviews and adit. So this is the evidence to show to your stakeholders that about your management quality. So the Software Quality Assurance report that showed us that the quality of this project was pretty high and definitely the organization they will effort your work. So let us pause the video for a while and answer the question, what are the benefits of Software Quality Assurance? So these are the benefits that is monitoring and improving the process, make sure that all the standards and procedures are followed and preventing the quality problems from the occurring. So these are the main benefits of this Software Quality Assurance phase. Software Quality Assurance, the plan, adit review that steps we discussed and need of the Software Quality Assurance in the test management process is very important and implementation of the quality assurance. So these are the references I have referred. Thank you.
