Abstract—In assessing test process maturity, one of the goals is to manage disciplinary issues. Managing corrective actions to closure is known to aid software quality assurance, in general, and testing process activities, in particular. In this paper, a framework for software testing assessment, namely OSS-TPA, that aims to evaluate corrective actions in OSS test process, is proposed. The OSS-TPA framework is based on earlier studies and relies on a conceptual model for test process activities in OSS development. Using success factors in OSS development, the relationship between the maturity of managing corrective actions and the adoption of OSS is investigated.
