Overview
Predict these things BEFORE coding and/or testing
begins
- Software defects during testing and after delivery
- Testing effort required to meet a desired/required objective
- Software failure rate, MTTF, MTTCF, availability, reliability
Predictive models differ from reliability growth models...
- Used as early as the concept phase
- Once testing commences, growth models such as those contained in WhenToStop module can then be used.
Major disadvantages of traditional software reliability growth estimation models
- Cannot be used until code is finished and systems testing begins
- Fewer alternatives for balancing schedule, cost and defects
Key capabilities
- Models were derived from data mining real software companies and
products and practices
- While other models measure only a few characteristics, Frestimate
measures all of the below
- People
- Size, complexity, techniques, practices
- Process
- Model is mapped to DO-178B,
IEC61508-3 and Capability Maturity Model
- Wizards help you develop your prediction and understand your results
- Integrated with the Metrics Tool Suite
The SoftRel Software Reliability Toolkit is essentially
the automation of the below workflow.
