Abstract:
1. A method for assessing software quality, comprising: determining, by a quality assessment computing apparatus, at least one initial project request defect value based on an initial project request effort value, a defect insertion rate, and a deterioration of review efficiency value, wherein the deterioration of review efficiency value indicates the diminishing effectiveness of defect detection; obtaining, by the quality assessment computing apparatus, a plurality of project change request attributes; determining, by the quality assessment computing apparatus, at least one project change request defect value based on a project change request effort value and the defect insertion rate, wherein the project change request effort value is based on the project change request attributes; calculating, by the quality assessment computing apparatus, a ratio of the at least one determined initial project request defect value to the at least one project change request defect value; comparing, by the quality assessment computing apparatus, the calculated ratio of the at least one project change request defect value and the at least one initial project request defect value, to a threshold quality impact value; and providing, by the quality assessment computing apparatus, a quality impact value based on the result of the comparison.
