Introduction

The world became progressively dependent on technology and the software automatically became an important aspect of development.

For a decade now, we are building different Software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications. Throughout our journey, we have experienced different scenarios which lead us to develop more efficient products.

Besides planning, analyzing and designing, quality assurance and quality control play a significant role in the software development process.

As you already know an advanced software development needs good research to kick off. So, to help you out a plan accordingly, today, we are exploring the basics of a software development process.

What is Quality Assurance?

QA is the process that ensures the organization is providing the best possible service or product to their customers. Quality Assurance is popularly known as QA Testing

QC is a procedure or set of procedures which ensure that the release product or performed service stick to their defined set of quality criteria or meets the requirements of the client or customer.

Quality Assurance

• A procedure which deliberate on offering assurance that quality requested will be achieved

• It involves in full software development life cycle aiming to prevent the defect

• Techniques to manage quality verification

• It is a preventive technique to create the deliverables

• It's a proactive measure that doesn't involve executing the program

• The statistical technique applied on QA is known as SPC or Statistical Process Control (SPC)

Quality Control

• A procedure which deliberates on fulfilling the quality requested

• It involves a full software testing life cycle aiming to identify and fix bugs
