Software Quality and Reliability (SQR)
Information Technology

Software Quality & Reliability (SQR) are two areas that should be addressed in the expectation setting and project negotiation stages of a project. Quality reflects how well software complies with or conforms to a given design, based on functional requirements or specifications, while reliability pertains to the probability of failure-free software operation for a specified period of time in a particular environment.

The requirements for high-quality, reliable, predictable software becomes increasingly necessary as its use continues to grow both generally and in mission- or life-critical environments. The Software Quality & Reliability (SQR) module discusses the concepts of software quality, the quality models, standards and the methodologies used in the software industry. The module also describes how these processes fit into the software development process.
