Framework for Observing the Maintenance Needs, Runtime Metrics and the Overall Quality-in-Use

The post-release maintenance is usually the most expensive phase in the software product lifecycle from the first design concepts to the end of product support. To reduce the costs related to post-release maintenance, we propose a run-time framework for measuring software quality characteristics applying the ISO/IEC 25000 software quality and software quality in use models as the starting point. Measurement probes are linked into the software during the development phase and used to collect quality information during the run time. As a proof-of-concept, we implemented measurements in an open-source software project to demonstrate the utility of the framework. As a result, this paper presents a framework for collecting runtime metrics and measuring software quality-in-use with a systematic interface. Additionally, examples of measurement scenarios are presented.

“测试即服务”概念模型研究

给出"测试即服务"(TaaS)概念的完整定义,并比较TaaS与传统软件测试模式的区别。在参考软件测试国际标准的基础上,提出TaaS架构层次模型,讨论TaaS的测试过程和应用现状,通过实证调查分析用户选择TaaS的影响因素,并探讨TaaS中新的软件测试质量评价方法。

公有云应用中测试的安全问题(英文)

本研究旨在探讨云测试的安全问题。虽然越来越多的企业开始向云环境迈进并共享信息,但他们同样十分关注云环境的安全问题和可能存在的风险。综述测试过程中安全保障方法的现有概念,在此基础上重点归纳和分析公共云测试中的信任、治理、承诺、认证与访问管理、可用性、数据安全、隔离及失败、架构这8类安全问题的风险程度,并对典型的公共云服务提供商在这8类安全问题上所采取的安全策略进行实证分析。
