3.1 Software Quality Assurance Components
The components of software quality assurance are very important part in the software engineering to ensure the software meet the compliance with the standards and procedures of the software quality so as to improve the quality of the given software. The software quality assurance components that are used by the Software Quality Assurance system can be classified into six different categories. Those categories are summarized by figure 1 below Figure 1 : Software Quality Assurance Components
i. Pre-project Components
This is the first component that ensures the project has been clear defined requirement by considering scheduling ,budget and resources available and enhance the client or organization

Under this step, there are a number of activities software quality specials perform; these are reviews such as formal design reviews and peer reviews, expert opinions, software testing, software maintenance and finally, the assurance of the quality of external participants’ work which ensures that any efforts by external members meet the quality and standards of the organization. iii. Infrastructure components for error prevention and Improvement
The major function of this component is to minimize the number of errors in the software developed and advance their productivity. This is accomplished through the use of the following sub-components.
• Procedures and Work Instructions
This subcomponent is depend on the knowledge and experience that organization used to ensure the quality assurance of the given software for example having a detailed guideline ensures that all members of the organization must follow to achieve some goal of the software. Usually the quality assurance procedures that undertaken in the organization offer detailed definitions for the performance of specific types of development activities in a way that assures effective achievement of quality

Software Quality Management
This a management process which have the goals to develop and manage the quality of software that enable to make sure the product meets the quality standards expected by the customer and furthermore meeting any necessary regulatory and developer requirements. This component not only focuses on product quality but also to control the means in which it can be achieved to develop the software. Some of the components used to support the managerial control of software development projects are the Project Progress Control, Software Quality Metrics and Software Quality costs.
• Project Progress Control
This subcomponent is responsible to observe the progress of the project to guarantee that it does not go against from its initial plans. Normally, this focus mainly on risk management activities, schedules, monitoring resource usages and the budget.
• A Software Quality Metric
This use mathematic techniques to measure and to improve the quality of software . The software is the input, and the output is a numeric value which represents the degree to which the software possesses a given quality attribute. The measures can apply to functional quality, productivity and the organization side of the
1. Planning Before you want to jump right into planning, you want to meet with your client to talk about the project, you want to obtain certain information so that it can help you learn more about the project and whether or not the project should go ahead. Once you accept doing this project, you want to make sure that the client knows the requirements you’re looking for and whether they will meet your standard. For example, your payment estimates for future stages of the project.
8.2 VERIFICATION AND VALIDATION FOR ACCEPTANCE Verification and validation testing are two important tests which are carried out on a software before it has been handed over to the customer. The aim of both verification and validation is to ensure that the product is made according to the requirements of the client, and does indeed fulfill the intended purpose. While verification is a quality control process, the quality assurance process carried out before the software is ready for release is known as validation testing. Its goal is to validate and be confident about the product or system, and that it fulfills the requirements given by the customer.
Critical Element 1: TITLE: Cash Verification (CV) Financial Reviews S: Conduct and complete mandated CV reviews on negotiable instruments and other assets to ensure sound financial management. Provide advice, education and training to appointed collection agents and departments to ensure fund management efficiency/effectiveness, ensuring strong internal management controls are practiced. M: Conduct 24 reviews; prepare reports, ensure RM is briefed and afforded an opportunity to respond to report results; report results to the CO in a timely manner; follow-up on any reported findings in subsequent reviews.
Milestones and assignments to each responsible individuals working on the project are defined. The reports are requested from individuals to make sure the project and work is moving forward and everyone is on schedule. The work is managed with schedule, deliverables, and assigning capable leads to drive the projects and taking report from the leads. This way, it makes the management hours to be flexible and leaves enough time to respond to issues or needs.
Task 1 - REPORT (P1, M1, D1) Your first task is to investigate web architecture and components involved in website production, and produce a report. In Part 1 of the report you are required to outline the role of the following: ARCHITECTURE: Internet Service Providers (ISP): businesses which provides access to the Internet to their subscribed customers and provide dial-up, cable, fibre optic or other types of Internet access. E.g. Sky, BT, Virgin Media and TalkTalk are examples of Internet Service Providers and broadband providers. Web hosting services: this is a kind of Internet hosting service that ables people and organisations to make their own website accessible through the World Wide Web.
Those ten standards are as follows. 1. Having a system in place for monitoring and evaluating the procedures, 2. Quality control, 3. Proficiency testing, 4.
In this document I will be explain the advantages and disadvantages of installing and upgrading new software. Advantages: There are a large amount of reasons as to why people should consider upgrading, or installing new software. Many people will upgrade their software due to the following reasons: • New hardware – With new hardware, many people will be wanting the upgrade in order to have a more efficient computer system. One way a hardware upgrade will make your computer system more efficient is the response time on a computer. With the response time becoming faster, it’ll allow people to complete work faster resulting on more work done.
Performance Metrics: Metrics should be established to measure the success of the marketing plan
FISMA makes sure that certain security standards and guidelines are followed; categorizing information and information systems by mission impact, minimum security requirements, selecting appropriate security controls, assessing security controls, determining security control effectiveness, security authorization, and monitoring the security controls and security authorization.
Combining views By adopting layers as the basic component of work assignment and implementation, we will combine the allocation views (implementation and work assignment) with module views (decomposition) for each stakeholder. Before the work assignment is assigned a value it is important to know which module is allocated to which layer. This way module decomposition and layers go along with each other and by making this decision it reduces three views from the system architecture. Rationale Reason behind choosing the component and connector view is to display the concurrent process execution between the system components.
Address any variances in budget reporting from previous reporting period. Include: (1) Estimated Total Project Budget, (2) Estimated Construction Budget, and (3) Dollars Expended to Date. If there is a Financing Agreement for this project, provide an update. If none, indicate that. Section 5 – Project Scope and/or Quality Items Indicate any adjustments or considerations that impact or change the project scope or quality (such as pending change orders, standards waivers, etc.)
the project, this will be include creating the interfaces, building the application logic, creating the database and integrating all the three tiers to meet the functional requirements laid out in the project specification. Testing phase – 1 week This stage involves unit and integration testing of all the modules implemented in the previous stage following the test plans laid out in design phase. Test results are to be created to demonstrate the effectiveness. Testing will focus on security, performance, usability and accessibility of the
