Review Paper on Software Quality Factors

Abstract

Software quality factors are an important and ideal measure of the quality of software, in

addition to being a good indicator of the need for software development and maintenance. Software

quality factors are gaining importance and acceptance in the corporate sectors where organizations grow

in nature and strive to improve the quality of the organization, while quality measures are quantitative

measures of the degree to which a program addresses a particular feature that affects their quality. In

this paper, we will make a survey on Software Quality factors and categories these Factors into three

important classes: Product operation, revision, and transition factors where these factors were declared

by McCall’s and named as “McCall’s Factor Model”. There are another two Factor models we will

study, they are “Deutsch and Willis Factor Model” and “Evans and Marciniak Factor Model”, by using

these factors we can evaluate the software Product quality and make a decision is good or bad.
