Title
Quality specification, testing and certification of bespoken, open source and commercial off-the-shelf systems
Abstract
The seminar will cover the principles as well as the best practices of software system quality assurance (comprising inspection, verification, validation, black and white box test, measurement and assessment, and the normative quality characteristics) for procedural, object-oriented, aspectoriented and agent-based dependable software. Attendees will exercise proven techniques for goal-directed quality specification, testing, measurement, scaling and assessment for software certification. Assessment of both the software product as well as the software process will be discussed with respect to its relevance for such acceptance assessments. A standardized process model for measurement, assessment and certification of dependable software will be used to make the attendees familiar with this comprehensive assessment procedure and to learn how to embed it into today's standardized or non-standardized software processes.
