MOTIVATION
The goal of software engineering is to achieve high-quality software
in a cost-effective, timely, and reproducible manner. Advances in
technology offer us reductions in cost and schedule, but their effect
on software quality often remains unknown. Object-oriented concepts,
component technology, components off the shelf (COTS), and open source
software can dramatically reduce development time; however, assuring
the quality of systems using these technologies is problematic.
New software development processes also complicate quality
assurance. Agile methods explicitely allow customers to change
requirements very late in the project. Agile methods also take a "light
weight" approach to project documentation and software testing. Reducing
process overhead can improve response to change and speed product
delivery, but may also adversely affect the project's risk profile. Little
data exists on the quality of industrial systems developed using Agile
methods.
The job of measuring, assuring, and improving the quality of software
systems is getting harder, not easier. The goal of this workshop is to
bring together researchers, engineers, and practitioners to discuss
and evaluate the latest challenges and breakthroughs in the field of
software quality. The main focus of the workshop will be on software
quality assurance.
