Full Description

Scope

This standard establishes a required minimum contents for Software Quality Assurance plans. It is directed toward the development and maintenance of critical software, that is, where the failure could cause large financial or social losses. The orientation is toward delineating all of the planned and systematic actions on a particular project that would provide adequate confidence that the software product conforms to established technical requirements. This standard correlates the content of software quality assurance plans as defined in 730 and the content of such plans as defined in IEEE 12207.1.

Purpose

To achieve harmonization of the software life cycle process objectives for software quality assurance among the IEEE software engineering standards and with related international standards. This will help users to produce results consistent with the international standard for software life cycle processes, ISO/IEC 12207. To clarify inconsistencies in existing document and bring it intyo compatibility with IEEE Std 828 and IEEE/EIA 12207.0.

Abstract

Revision Standard - Superseded.Uniform, minimum acceptable requirements for preparation and content of Software QualityAssurance Plans (SQAPs) are provided. This standard applies to the development and maintenance of critical software. For non-critical software, or for software already developed, a subset of the requirements of this standard may be applied.
