Topic: Quality Assurance in Software Development

Topic: Quality Assurance in Software Development

Objectives & Outcomes:

• Understand the concept of quality assurance and its importance in software development.
• Identify different methods and techniques used for quality assurance in software development.
• Apply the concept of quality assurance in software development in a real-world scenario.

Materials

• Slides or videos for presentation
• Handouts with examples and exercises
• Software for real-world application (e.g. JIRA, Visual Studio)

Warm-up

• Ask the students to name some popular software applications or websites that they usually use on a daily basis. Write the names on the board.
• Ask the students to share their experience with these applications or websites. Ask them if the applications or websites function properly without any bugs or glitches.
• Discuss the importance of quality assurance in software development.

Direct Instruction

• Introduce the concept of quality assurance (QA) in software development. Explain that QA is the process of ensuring that a software product meets the required quality standards.
• Discuss the different stages of software development and the role of QA in each stage.
• Define the terms "quality criteria" and "quality control". Explain that quality criteria are the set of standards or requirements that a software product must meet, while quality control is the process of testing the software to ensure that it meets the quality criteria.
• Explain the different types of testing that can be done in software development, such as functional testing, performance testing, and regression testing.
