Abstract

Software quality assurance plays an important role to justify the software to reach the right level of quality. Its objective is to estimate the software quality and the errors in software modules before release to market place. In order to estimate the right level of quality one must apply some comprehensive techniques. To determine software quality, we present the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is the suitable approach for assessing the quality of software, with judgments by a group of experts rating. Since developing perfect or highly compatible software is not easy the AHP approach puts a threshold beyond which the quality of the new development is more than acceptable. We studied various techniques approached by different authors of software quality assurance to enable the stakeholder for choosing right kind of techniques suitable to their project.
