Setting Software Quality Purposes

• Various quality attributes may have various
  levels of significance to various clients and
  users. Relevant quality views and attributes need
  to be identified first.
• In the case if software is used in different
  real-time control conditions, for example air
  traffic control software and embedded software in
  automobile, medical devices and so on, accidents
  due to failures may be disastrous. Consequently,
  safety is the main interest.

Setting Software Quality Purposes

• On the other hand, for mass market software
  packages, such as different auxiliary utilities
  for personal computers, usability, instead of
  reliability or safety, is the main interest.

In the narrower meaning of quality associated
with errors, faults and failures there are
various kinds of troubles and software bugs that
may have various significance to various clients.

• In that way, for software that is intended for
  different operational environments,
  inter-operability troubles may have a main
  importance for clients and users while the equal
  troubles may not have such a big importance for
  software products with a standard operational
  environment.

Setting Software Quality Purposes

• Software vendors not only compete on quality
  alone, but also on price, time-table, innovation,
  flexibility, user experience and others.

Zero defect is not reachable purpose and should
not be the goal. Instead, zero defection and
positive flow of new clients and users based on
quality anticipations management should be a
purpose.
