Software Quality Assurance in software engineering

Image
Software Quality Assurance (SQA):-  SQA is a set of activity assuring quality in software engineering process. Altimetry result in quality in software products. It include a following activities:- Process definition & implementation Auditing  Training  SQA is a process that insure hat developed software needs & compiles with defined or standardized quality specification. SQA is an on going process with in the SDLC that routinely checks the developed software to insure its needs desired quality measured. SQA helps to insure the development of high quality software. SQA practices are implementation in most type of software development regardless of underline software development model are being used. In a border sense SQA incorporate an implement software testing methodology to test software. SQA process test for quality in each phase of development until the software is completed. SQA genially works on one or more industries standards that helps in building softwar...

what is Data Flow Diagram (DFD), Features of DFD, Zero '0' level DFD, First '1' level DFD and Boehm's definition of organic, semi-detached and embedded system in software engineering

Data Flow Diagram (DFD):- 

It is a graphical representation of the flow of data through an information system modeling, modeling its process expect. A DFD is of an use as a skip to create an overview of the system. Without going into great details, which can later elaborate. DFD is also use for the visualization data processing (structured design).

Features of DFD:- 

A DFD shows what kind of information will be input and output from the system and how the data will advance through the system and where the data will be stored it dose not shows information about process timing or whether process will operate in sequence or in parallel unlike a traditional structured flow chart will focuses on control flow activity which presents both controls and data flow as a unified model.

Zero '0' level DFD:- 

A context diagram is a top level also known as zero level DFD. It only content one process note(process '0') that generalized the function of entire system in a relationship to external entities.

First '1' level DFD:- 

The '1' level DFD is more detailed than a zero level DFD but not as detailed than second level DFD. It breaks down the main process into sub processes that can be analyzed and improved or more intimate level.

All of these models can be applied to a variety of project, whose characteristics determine the value of constant to be used in sub sequent calculation. These characteristics pertaining to different system types or maintained below.

Boehm's definition of organic, semi-detached and embedded system:-

  • Organic:- 
A software project is said to be an organic type if the term size required is adequately small. The problem is well understood and should in the past and also the team members have a nominal experience regarding the problem.

  • Semi-detached:-

 A software project said to be semi-detach type if the virtual characteristics such as term size, experience knowledge of the various programming environment in between organic and embedded. The project classified as semi-detached are comparatively less familiar and difficult to developed compared to the organic once and require more experience and better guidance and creativity.

  • Embedded:- 

A software project with require the highest. level of complexity creativity  and experience  under this categories. Such required a large team size than the other two models and also the developers need to be develop such complex model.

E-R model (Entity-Relationship model) in DBMS, Attributes

Image
 E-R Model (Entity-Relationship Model) :- It a  high level conceptual data model.  It allows us to describe the data involved in a real world inter price , in terms of objects & there relationship. It is validly used to developed an initial design of data base it provides a set of useful concepts that make it convenient for a developer. It describes data as a collection of entities relationship & attributes. Entities:- An entities is an object of consult used to represent the things in the real word. Eg:- Car, Table, etc. An entity need not be a physical entity it can also represent a concept in real words. Eg:- Project, Loan, etc. Entity Set:- A collection of similar kind of entities is called an entity set all entity type -> In college  database students, faculty, Course & Department are consort of check. The collection of all the students similarly collection of all course from an entity set course. Entity Identifier key attributes:- An entity type ...

Structure of Database Management System (DBMS)

Image
   Structure of Data Base Management System:-          The measure components of DBMS described below:- Data Manager:-  It is the central software component of the DBMS. It is some times called database control system. Main function of the data manager is to convert operation in the user queries directly via the query processor or indirectly by an application program from the user logical view to a physical file system the data manager is also responsible for interfacing with the file system. The tasks of informing constraints to maintain the consistently and integrity of the data as well as its securely are also performed by data manager backup & recovery operations are  also performed by data manager. File Manager:- It is responsible for the structure of file & managing the file space it is also responsible for location the block containing the required record. Disk Manager:- The manager is a part of operating system of the host com...

Software testing, Software testing principals

Image
Software testing:-  It is a program intended to find errors. It is a process to evaluate the functionality of a software application with an intent to find weather the developed software meet the specified required or not & to product is defect free in order to produce the quality product. Software testing principals:- Testing is a process which shows the presence of defect in the application. Exhaustive testing is impossible:-There is less possibility of testing with combinations of input, data, test & cinereous & recondition as they will take more time to test the process. Therefore the testing team can use some important testing criteria instead of doing exhausting testing. Testing activities will be conducted in the software or system development life cycle to find the defects as soon as possible. If errors are found in an initial stage of the development life cycle then it will be easier & cheaper to fixed the errors. Testing is context development . It approac...
