A secondary objective of software quality assurance is to ensure that the software-intensive systems we develop are more secure.<\/p>\n<p>Software quality assurance constitutes administrative and procedural activities enforced in a software quality system so that requirements and goals for a product, service or activity will be fulfilled. It is the systematic measurement, monitoring of processes, comparison with a standard and an associated feedback loop that confers error prevention. This can be contrasted with quality control, which is focused on process output.<\/p>\n<p>Two principles included in software quality assurance are: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Fit for purpose\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (the product should be desirable for the aimed purpose); and \u00e2\u20ac\u0153right first time\u00e2\u20ac\u009d (errors should be eliminated)<\/p>\n<p>Desirable quality is determined by product end-users or customers. It is not linked to cost, and descriptors or adjectives such as \u00e2\u20ac\u0153poor\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and \u00e2\u20ac\u0153high\u00e2\u20ac\u009d are not applicable. For example, a product having low priced may be viewed as having high quality because it is disposable, whereas another product may be viewed as having poor quality because it is not disposable.<\/p>\n<h2>Mobile Application Testing<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Mobile Application Testing<\/strong>\u00c2\u00a0is a process by which software application developed for mobile devices is tested for its functionality, usability and consistency. Mobile application testing can be automated or manual type of testing.<\/p>\n<p>Erroneous operation of the mobile application (iPhone apps, blackberry apps, android apps,) which is the backbone of a business could result in enormous loss of time &amp; productivity along with user frustration, as have a significant financial impact.
