Cost of Software Quality
To be completed
There are about ‘Y errors’ per 1000 lines of code
It takes about ‘Z minutes’ to find each error
It takes about ‘U hours’ to fix each error

Objectives of cost of software quality metrics
Managerial control over the cost of software quality is achieved by comparison of actual performance figures with:
Control budgeted expenditures (for SQA prevention and appraisal activities)
Previous year’s failure costs
Previous project’s quality costs (control costs and failure costs)
Other department’s quality costs (control costs and failure costs)
![Page 9: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The specific objectives are: Control organization-initiated costs to
prevent and detect software errors
Evaluation of the economic damages of software failures as a basis for revising the SQA budget
Evaluation of plans to increase or decrease SQA activities or to invest in a new or updated SQA infrastructure on the basis of past economic performance
![Page 10: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The classic model of cost of software quality
The model classifies costs related to product quality into two general classes:
Costs of control include costs that are spent to prevent and detect software errors in order to reduce them to an accepted level.
Costs of failure of control include costs of failures that occurred because of failure to prevent and detect software errors. The model further subdivides these into subclasses.
![Page 11: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Costs of control
Costs of control are assigned to either the prevention or the appraisal costs subclass:
Prevention costs include investments in quality infrastructure and quality activities that are not directed to a specific project or system, being general to the organization.
Appraisal costs include the costs of activities performed for a specific project or software system for the purpose of detecting software errors.
![Page 12: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Failures of control costs
Failures of control costs are further classified into internal failure costs and external failure costs:
Internal failure costs include costs of correcting errors that have been detected by design reviews, software tests and acceptance tests (carried out by the customer) and completed before the software is installed at customer sites.
![Page 13: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Failures of control costs
External failure costs include all costs of correcting failures detected by customers or the maintenance team after the software system has been installed.
![Page 14: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The classic model of cost of software quality
![Page 15: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Prevention costs
Prevention costs include investments in establishing a software quality infrastructure, updating and improving that infrastructure as well as performing the regular activities required for its operation.
![Page 16: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

![Page 17: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Typical preventive costs include:
2. Regular implementation of SQA preventive activities:
Instruction of new employees in SQA subjects and procedures related to their positions
Instruction of employees in new and updated SQA subjects and procedures
Certification of employees for positions that require special certification
Consultations on SQA issues provided to team leaders and others.

Management quality reviews
![Page 19: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Appraisal costs
Appraisal costs are devoted to detection of software errors in specific projects or software systems.
Typical appraisal costs cover:1. Reviews:
Formal design reviews (DRs) Peer reviews (inspections and
walkthroughs) Expert reviews.
![Page 20: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Typical appraisal costs cover:
2. Costs of software testing: Unit tests Integration tests Software system tests Acceptance tests (participation in tests
carried out by the customer).
![Page 21: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Typical appraisal costs cover:
3. Costs of assuring quality of external participants, primarily by means of design reviews and software testing. These activities are applied to the activities performed by:
Subcontractors Suppliers of COTS (Commercial Off-The-
Shelf)software systems and reusable software modules
The customer as a participant in performing the project.
![Page 22: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
External failure costs
External failure costs entail the costs of correcting failures detected by customers or maintenance teams after the software system has been installed at customer sites.
![Page 23: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Internal failure costs
Internal failure costs are those incurred when correcting errors that have been detected by design reviews, software tests and acceptance tests per-formed before the software has been installed at customer sites.
Internal failure costs represent the costs of error correction subsequent to formal examinations of the software during its development.
![Page 24: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Typical costs of internal failures are:
Costs of redesign or design corrections subsequent to design review and test findings
Costs of re-programming or correcting programs in response to test findings
Costs of repeated design review and re-testing (regression tests).
![Page 25: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Typical external failure costs cover:
Resolution of customer complaints during the warranty period.
Correction of software bugs detected during regular operation.
Correction of software failures after the warranty period is over even if the correction is not covered by the warranty.

![Page 27: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Extended COQ Managerial Preparation and Control Costs
Costs of carrying out contract reviews Costs of preparing project plans,
including quality plans Costs of periodic updating of project and
quality plans Costs of performing regular progress
control Costs of performing regular progress
control of external participants’ contributions to projects

Extended COQManagerial Failure Costs
Unplanned costs for professional and other resources, resulting from underestimation of the resources in the proposal stage.
Damages paid to customers as compensation for late project completion, a result of the unrealistic schedule in the Company’s proposal.
![Page 29: Ch 10 cost of software quality](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052621/55896153d8b42a881c8b45bf/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Extended COQManagerial Failure Costs
Damages paid to customers as compensation for late completion of the project, a result of management’s failure to recruit team members.
Domino effect: Damages to other projects planned to be performed by the same teams involved in the delayed projects. The domino effect may induce considerable hidden external failure costs.
