Background: Software product quality assurance affects the acceptance of releases. The one dimensional observational perspective of current software product quality (SPQ) models constrains their use in continuous software engineering environments. Aims: To investigate multidimensional relationships between software product characteristics and build an evidence-based infrastructure to observe SPQ continuously. Method: To mine and manipulate datasets regarding software development and use. Next, to perform multidimensional analytical SPQ interpretations to observe quality. Results: There is empirical evidence on the multidimensionality linkage of quality characteristics throughout the software life cycle. Conclusions: The one-dimensional quality perspective is not enough to observe the SPQ in continuous environments. Alternative mathematical abstractions should be investigated.
