1 Objectives of quality measurement Classifications of software quality metrics Process metrics Product metrics Implementation of software quality metrics Limitations of software metrics The function point method ppt by cah based on Galin etc 8.1 A quantitative measure of the degree to which an item possesses a given quality attribute A function whose inputs are software data and whose output is a single numerical value that can be interested as the degree to which the software possesses a given quality attribute ppt by cah based on Galin etc 8.2 Facilitate management control, planning and managerial intervention. Based on Deviations of actual from planned performance. Deviations of actual timetable budget performance from planned. Identify situations for development or maintenance process improvements (preventative or corrective actions) Accumulation of metrics information regarding the performance of teams, units, etc. ppt by cah based on Galin etc 8.3 General Requirements Relevant Valid Reliable Comprehensive Mutually exclusive Operative requirements Easy and simple Does not require independent data collection Immune to biased interventions by interested parties ppt by cah based on Galin etc 8.4 1

2 Classification by phases of software system Process metrics - related to the software development process Product metrics - related to operation and maintenance of software Classification by subjects of measurements Quality Timetable Effectiveness (of error removal and maintenance services) ppt by cah based on Galin etc 8.5 classic metric that measures the size of software by thousands of code lines. Number of function points (NFP) measures the development (human) resources required to develop a program, based on the functionality specified for the software system. ppt by cah based on Galin etc 8.6 Process metrics categories Software process quality metrics Error density metrics (software volume + errors counted) Error sensitivity metrics Software process timetable metrics Error removal effectiveness metrics Software process productivity metrics Calculation of NCE Calculation of WCE Error severity class Number of Errors Relative Weight Weighted Errors a b c D = b x c low severity medium severity high severity Total NCE WCE ppt by cah based on Galin etc 8.7 ppt by cah based on Galin etc 8.8 2
