Software subcontracting success: a case study on the relationship betweeen project success and process metrics
Yücetürk, Kerem; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Information Systems (2005)
While software subcontracting is a common business transaction in the information technology field, metrics specifically aimed at effectiveness of software subcontracting arrangements are not commonly available. This thesis makes a review of the literature and derives such metrics from fields of software quality, COTS acquisition and IS success. A case study is performed on software subcontracting projects of a Turkish defense contractor, and the project metrics are compared according to their success. The ...
Software test maturity assessment and test process improvement: A multivocal literature review
Garousi, Vahid; Felderer, Michael; Hacaloglu, Tuna (Elsevier BV, 2017-05-01)
Context: Software testing practices and processes in many companies are far from being mature and are usually conducted in ad-hoc fashions. Such immature practices lead to various negative outcomes, e.g., ineffectiveness of testing practices in detecting all the defects, and cost and schedule overruns of testing activities. To conduct test maturity assessment (TMA) and test process improvement (TPI) in a systematic manner, various TMA/TPI models and approaches have been proposed.
Software test-code engineering: A systematic mapping
Yusifoglu, Vahid Garousi; Amannejad, Yasaman; Betin Can, Aysu (2015-02-01)
Context: As a result of automated software testing, large amounts of software test code (script) are usually developed by software teams. Automated test scripts provide many benefits, such as repeatable, predictable, and efficient test executions. However, just like any software development activity, development of test scripts is tedious and error prone. We refer, in this study, to all activities that should be conducted during the entire lifecycle of test-code as Software Test-Code Engineering (STCE).
Software development in practice : a qualitative study in Turkish defense sector
Dilber, Başak; Özkan Yıldırım, Sevgi; Department of Information Systems (2013)
Since management is an abstract concept, modeling or simulating software development projects is not exactly possible. Thus successful software project development and the factors affecting it have been popular fields of research for the last half century. The aim of this qualitative grounded theory study is to bring out the essence of the experience of people working as software developers in a specific organization operating in Turkey; to come up with a set of principles explaining the main success factor...
Software process improvement based on static process evaluation
Seçkin, Haldun; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2006)
This study investigates software development process improvement approaches. In particular, the static process evaluation methodology proposed by S. Güceğlioğlu is applied on the requirements analysis and validation process applied in Project X in MYCOMPANY and an improved process is proposed. That methodology is an extension of the ISO/IEC 9126 approach for software quality assessment, and is based on evaluating a set of well-defined metrics on the static model of software development processes. The improv...
