Meta-SQAP: meta-methodology for software quality assurance
Katsumi Honda, K. Minomura, Toshihiro Komiyama · 2003
A meta-methodology for software quality assurance has been developed and put into practice so that software quality assurance activities can be effectively and systematically executed in software projects. Meta-SQAP (software quality assurance program) provides guidelines and information concerning the three levels of SQA activities: the project SQA, the SQA management cycle, and the division SQA activity levels. Under Meta-SQAP, project SQA activities, such as review, configuration control, and testing, are well organized and planned out as a SQAP. The SQAP is effectively operated by the SQA management cycle activities, consisting of SQA target definition, SQA program evaluation, and feedback. All the projects are supported by the division SQA activities in each division, such as organizational restructuring and information exchange between projects.>
