1. Software Quality Assurance Plan (CIS 565) Dan Ferrell 12/20/99

2. Overview of Presentation Introduction SQA Tasks Resources General Review Guidelines SQA Audits Report / Corrective Action Software Process Improvement

3. Introduction Southeastern Michigan Chapter of the American Red Cross web site User’s guide so that they can update and maintain the site on their own using FrontPage 2000 (with little or no technical knowledge)

4. Scope of SQA Plan Ensure that the project is both reliable and is virtually error free. Ensure that once the web site is handed over to the Red Cross they are able to maintain the site with a minimal amount of problems.

5. Main Issues for the SQA to cover Test all links for correctness Ensure the site covers all of the criteria that the Red Cross has set for us to cover in the project Ensure that this features of the site work in both versions of Netscape and Internet Explorer

6. Software Quality Assurance Tasks Organized in a democratic group style Most work is done on a volunteer basis, except documentation at various milestones in the project. Busy work schedule 5 major documents / 5 people in the group

7. Task Overview User’s Guide for FrontPage 2000 Maintenance Dynamic Scrolling Marquee Navigation bars and menus on each page Four main areas of the site: Chapter Location, Financial Donation, Disaster Relief, Volunteering

8. FrontPage 2000 User’s Guide After the site is created then we will proceed to the User’s Guide We will then test for correctness and ease of use for the Red Cross personnel responsible for its use (we are currently waiting for a response on the User’s guide)

9. Scrolling Marquee The marquee will be tested for its dynamic qualities to ensure that it appears the same on each and every page.

10. Navigation Bars One bar across the bottom of the page One set of buttons down the left side of the page to also navigate through the site. This will guide people through every page of the web site if desired

11. Section Page Information These pages contain simple links to navigate through the Red Cross web site. These will be tested for correctness. Also, we would like to ensure that the links, layout, and overall style is what the Red Cross is looking for at this time

17. GRG (continued) Review of work products No formal document will come out of these meeting, all that we are doing is sending an email memo to the client to update them as to our status on the project. SQA audits will also be discussed in these meetings also

18. Formal Technical Reviews System Specification Overview Requirements Specification Doc. Software Project Plan Software Project Management Plan RMMM Review RMMM Plan (part of SPMP)

19. More FTR Stuff... Component Design Document Software Design Document Test Specification Review Software Test Plan Change Control Reviews and Audits Revised version of the document in question

21. Report / Corrective Action Three Step Process (1) Find the error, report it to the group via group email (2) Notify the client/professor if needed (3) Suggest resolution to the problem if possible

22. Software Process Improvement Less bugs/errors introduced during development Gain more experience creating dynamic web site features and more experience working with FrontPage2000 Better Software Documents along the development lifecycle
