Achieving Excellence in Software Quality Assurance : Ray Rubey

About The Program

Why can some companies deliver seemingly error-free software ahead of schedule and below budget - while others are plagued with operational problems, continuing delays, and high costs? The answer lies in software quality assurance. In this video, Ray Rubey definitively proves that a properly-designed and effectively-implemented SQA system will improve both the quality of your software product and the productivity of your software process.

You receive key empirical data on quality. You learn the role and content of the SQA plan. Mr. Rubey provides a seven-part model outline that includes each and every required topic. You see how to organize your company to achieve effective SQA, and receive several organizational options plus SQA personnel qualifications for setting up your organization.

You then learn why self-evaluation of your software process is key to SQA. For each of the four software development phases, Mr. Rubey gives you specific questions to ask during evaluations. You learn how to conduct reviews, walkthroughs, and inspections. How to set up an effective corrective action system. How to use metrics in benchmarking your products and processes. You see a detailed software tools "tree," backed up by an extensive tools list. You study detailed numerical examples for each and every point Ray Rubey makes.
