Software quality assurance, a rigorous engineering practice

Name: Work Video:
Duration: 3 min 30 s
Description: The authors discuss engineering quality through measurement, looking at models, theories and the role of science; engineering; and models, theories and measures of software engineering. They discuss what software measurement actually is, giving a broad view of software measurement. They examine quality concepts, measuring within modelling and resistance to software measurement. >
