There is a ISO software quality standards<\/strong>, call ISO 25010<\/strong>. This standard defines 8 main quality characteristics<\/strong> and also quite a few secondary features. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Top 8 Software Quality Features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The top 8 software quality features are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Functional suitability<\/strong>. The degree or level to which the resulting software provides functions that satisfy the needs established for given conditions.<\/li>
  • Reliability<\/strong>. The degree to which a system or software component performs its functions under certain conditions and period of time.<\/li>
  • Performance efficiency<\/strong>. Performance in relation to the amount of resources used under the established conditions.<\/li>
  • Usability.<\/strong> The degree or level to which the software allows it to be understood, learned, used and easy for the user.<\/li>
  • Security<\/strong>. The degree of protection of information and data so that unauthorized people or systems cannot read or modify it and that allows access and use to authorized people or systems.<\/li>
  • Compatibility<\/strong>. The degree to which two or more systems or components can exchange information and\/or perform their functions.<\/li>
  • Maintainability<\/strong>. The degree of effectiveness and efficiency with which the software can be. Modified and\/or updated.<\/li>
  • Transferability<\/strong>. The degree or level to which a system or component transferred from one hardware, software, or other operating environment to another.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    This ISO 25010 standard is effective in determining quality at an early stage of software development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Limitations and advantages of the standard ISO 25010<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    This great norm has some limitations:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    • The rule It does not specify how quality characteristics are to be measured.<\/strong> <\/li>
    • Some of the quality features seem subjective<\/strong>.<\/li>
    • Although there is an ISO 25023 standard that defines metrics to measure ISO 25010, it has a limitation, which is that most of these metrics are at the behavioral level and not at the software code level. <\/li>
    • The other regulation that allows us to define measurement metrics, ISO 5055, is limited<\/strong> just 4 of the 8 quality characteristics of ISO 25010.<\/strong><\/li>
    • Another limitation is that most of the defined quality characteristics have different meanings in different contexts, such as execution speed, which in a web context may be valid but would not be valid in a context of real-time needs.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Despite these limitations, we can say that The regulations allow us to measure the most significant ones, which the sector has recognized are the following:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      • Code coverage<\/li>
      • abstract interpretation <\/li>
      • Cyclomatic complexity<\/li>
      • Compiler warnings<\/li>
      • Coding standards <\/li>
      • Code Duplication<\/li>
      • Deployment<\/li>
      • Security <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        The advantage <\/strong>measure is that it allows us to know if our code has been well developed<\/strong>. Therefore, regulations help generate good code, but they are not enough.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
