What Is Cost Of Quality (COQ): Cost Of Good And Poor Quality

COQ – Cost of Quality

This tutorial explains in detail what COQ is; costs of good and poor quality, cost of quality formula, examples, as well as ways to improve quality to optimize COQ:

Demands of the competitive global economy have placed a strong emphasis on quality across the IT industry.

In recent years, IT has been supporting the business in many ways and so its activities are being scrutinized by business executives in terms of added value i.e. larger profit margins, lower operational costs, faster software product delivery, etc.

The cost of quality in software development is a metric that could aid in turning software into a profitable tool for companies. Companies are looking at ROI i.e., the return to the organization from investment in software development.

Quality is gained at a price and the cost is called COQ or Cost of Quality.

How Do You Decide Which Defects are Acceptable for the Software to Go-live?

How Do You Decide Which Defects Are Acceptable For The Software To Go-Live?

While we want to make sure that everyone is working well, defects can still occur. But how do you determine which defects are acceptable before the go-live? Let’s find out.

Software Go-Live is always a big event for any software product. It is important to make sure that everything works and that we are releasing quality software to our users.

A bad, premature, unstable or difficult to use product can cause a lot of losses financially and could also make the user lose trust in the brand itself.

Many times, we hear that testing should be done until we meet the exit criteria and that defects have to be fixed to an acceptable level.

While these are great sounding guidelines, they are vague.

Sample Bug Report: Format, Template and Examples (UPDATED)

Sample-bug-report

This tutorial explains the Sample Bug Report Template field with examples and explanations to give you an exact idea of how to report a Bug:

If all building/development practices result in perfect systems and solutions, there is nothing left to question and validate. However, that is rarely true. Many things go wrong to various degrees and that warrants thorough verification and validation testing to ensure things are in order.

Enter systematic software testing and bug/defect reporting. Bug or Defect reports are part and parcel of a tester’s day-to-day life. We create defects, assign defects, retest fixed defects, find defect root causes, categorize defects per functionality, reference defects in our conversations, etc.

So, it is understandably a very important part of a tester’s job profile.
