Software Quality and Testing

1. Software fault: static error in the code. Software error: internal, not a normal behavior of the program due to a fault. Software failure: external, visible failure of the program. That it doesn't work basically. 2. Beizer discussed the goals of testing in terms of the “test process maturity levels” of an organization, where the levels are characterized by the testers’ goals. Level 0: Testing and debugging are the same. (Worst level) Level 1: Testing is only to find that your code doesn't work. Level 2: Get defensive or make an issue personal with testers because they broke your code. Level 3: Understand the job of a tester and take feedback as constructive criticism. Level 4: Become an expert software tester and make extreme good quality software. Work in harmony with testers. 3. Static Code Analysis is usually performed as part of a Code Review (also known as white-box testing). is a method of debugging by examining source code before a program is run . It’s done by ana...

Credits to @rossf Image Link ECOA Evidence  I've been Ken Bauer's student for almost four years in several different courses, and his teaching method has always been a breath of fresh air. From flip learning to almost conventional teaching (since you grade your own exam) he's not afraid to make changes and give students the chance to explore self learning and to take responsibility on when and how they learn the content of the course. This is a skill that is very important acquire and that is needed on a daily basis in every job in the tech field. Personally i enjoyed the Software Quality and Testing course. There are many students that might not like this method of teaching applied on this course because it requires them to take responsibilities on their own learning and some students can't handle this type of control over their own learning. No negative feedback for this course, only that maybe some classes should be online.
