Christensen, H. B., Hansen, K. M., & Lindstrøm, B. (2010, August). Lightweight and continuous architectural software quality assurance using the asqa technique. In European Conference on Software Architecture (pp. 118-132). Berlin, Heidelberg: Springer Berlin Heidelberg. In this paper, we present a novel technique for assessing and prioritizing architectural quality in large-scale software development projects. The technique can be applied with relatively little effort by software architects and thus suited for agile development in which quality attributes can be assessed and prioritized, e.g., within each development sprint. We outline the processes and metrics embodied in the technique, and report initial experiences on the benefits and liabilities. In conclusion, the technique is considered valuable and a viable tool, and has benefits in an architectural, technical, context, as well as in a business and people context.
Axelsson, J., & Skoglund, M. (2016). Quality assurance in software ecosystems: A systematic literature mapping and research agenda. Journal of Systems and Software, 114, 69-81. Software ecosystems are becoming a common model for software development in which different actors cooperate around a shared platform. However, it is not clear what the implications are on software quality when moving from a traditional approach to an ecosystem, and this is becoming increasingly important as ecosystems emerge in critical domains such as embedded applications. Therefore, this paper investigates the challenges related to quality assurance in software ecosystems, and identifies what approaches have been proposed in the literature. The research method used is a systematic literature mapping, which however only resulted in a small set of six papers. The literature findings are complemented with a constructive approach where areas are identified that merit further research, resulting in a set of research topics that form a research agenda for quality assurance in software ecosystems. The agenda spans the entire system life-cycle, and focuses on challenges particular to an ecosystem setting, which are mainly the results of the interactions across organizational borders, and the dynamic system integration being controlled by the users.
Lim, A. P., Thenuardi, D. S., Soewito, B., & Antonyova, A. (2020, August). Survey on quality assurance testing on service oriented architecture. In 2020 international conference on information management and technology (ICIMTech) (pp. 443-447). IEEE. Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) has greatly influenced the world of software development with the proposed combination of business process and application (service). Ensuring that correct implementation of business process in each service in SOA environment is quite different than monolithic applications, where each service must be tested independently and jointly, depending on targeted testing scope. With numerous proposed approaches for solving such challenge, this paper reviews some of those approaches to ease readers understanding of what can be done in testing in SOA environment. More specifically, this paper provides review on generic proposed approaches, unit testing, and integration testing approaches as part of quality assurance testing on SOA environment. In summary, the details of testing implementation will differ for each enterprise/organization as each has different set of requirements to satisfy.
