  1. 1. Understanding Test-Artifact Quality in Software Engineering

    Author : Huynh Khanh Vi Tran; Nauman bin Ali; Jürgen Börstler; Michael Unterkalmsteiner; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Software testing; Test case quality; Test suite quality; Test artifact quality; Quality assurance; Programvaruteknik; Software Engineering;

    Abstract : Context: The core of software testing is test artifacts, i.e., test cases, test suites, test scripts, test code, test specifications, and natural language tests. Hence, the quality of test artifacts can negatively or positively impact the reliability of the software testing process. READ MORE

  2. 2. Software Testing in Agile Development : Technological and Organisational Challenges

    Author : Adnan Čaušević; Sasikumar Punnekkat; Feldt Robert; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; software testing; agile development; test-driven development; role of testers; empirical study; controlled experiment; Software engineering; Programvaruteknik; Computer Science; datavetenskap;

    Abstract : The emerging industrial trend towards agile software development processes brings forth new concerns, challenges as well as opportunities. One of the main concerns is with respect to the achievable quality levels of the final product, for which testing is the well-known assurance mechanism. READ MORE

  3. 3. Towards good-enough Requirements Engineering : a theoretical Foundation for Requirements Quality

    Author : Julian Frattini; Daniel Mendez; Michael Unterkalmsteiner; Elmar Juergens; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Requirements Engineering; Requirements Quality; Theory Development; Programvaruteknik; Software Engineering;

    Abstract : Context: Requirements Engineering (RE) research has established a common agreement on the impact that the quality of requirements has on subsequent software development activities and artifacts. Furthermore, empirical investigations suppose that RE quality defects tend to scale in cost for remediation when left unattended. READ MORE

  4. 4. Towards Efficiency and Quality Assurance in Threat Analysis of Software Systems

    Author : Katja Tuma; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Secure Software Design; Threat Analysis Modeling ; Secure Software Design; Threat Analysis Modeling ;

    Abstract : Context: Security threats have been a growing concern in many organizations. Organizations developing software products strive to plan for security as soon as possible to mitigate such potential threats. READ MORE

  5. 5. Improving Software Security by Preventing Known Vulnerabilities

    Author : David Byers; Nahid Shahmehri; David Basin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Software security; software process improvement;

    Abstract : From originally being of little concern, security has become a crucial quality factor in modern software. The risk associated with software insecurity has increased dramatically with increased reliance on software and a growing number of threat agents. Nevertheless, developers still struggle with security. READ MORE
