Comparative Analysis of Models and Quality Standards of the Software Product

Abstract

Despite the rapid advance of the software industry, there are still defi ciencies in the quality of the products developed. There are various models and standards that can provide a basis for assessing the quality of software products. In this sense it is diffi cult for an organization to identify which is the most appropriate according to their characteristics, since most studies analyze very few models use a few criteria. This work aims to analyze a set of models and standards aimed at assessing the quality of software products in order to identify those that have been used or referenced, and aspects that characterize each. From the literature a set of criteria that were the basis for comparative analysis, among which are identified: quality characteristics and sub-characteristics, structure, purpose, separation of internal and external elements, relationships between quality characteristics, relationships between quality metrics and quality characteristics, type of project to which it applies, classifi cation type and type of quality assessed. As a result is based on the selection of the ISO / IEC 9126 and ISO / IEC 25010, as the more comprehensive standards taking into account the various approaches used in the comparison.
