Improvıng Qualıty in Software Projects: TMMi

Year 2019, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 143 - 152, 11.02.2020

Abstract

Software testing is one of the most important steps in the software development process. In particular, the
determination of the quality of the product at the end of the software development process is provided by
software testing. Despite its importance, the testing process in the software industry is often ignored due to
lack of planning and resources. In recent years, various models such as CMM, CMMI, ISO 15504 have emerged
for the purpose of providing quality certification in software, improving software development processes and
determining capability. There are process areas such as verification and validation related to software testing
processes in these models. However, these existing process areas do not contain sufficient information about
the details of the testing processes in the software process. The TMMi model has emerged to complement the
lack of software quality models related to testing processes. In this study, it is aimed to inform the companies
who want to improve their test processes in quality software development about TMMi. In addition, it is also
discussed in the study what software companies should pay attention to improve the maturity levels of the
test processes they have already applied.

Yazılım Projelerinde Kalitenin Arttırılması: TMMi

Year 2019, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 143 - 152, 11.02.2020

Abstract

Yazılım testi, yazılım geliştirme sürecinin en önemli safhalarından biridir. Özellikle yazılım geliştirme süreci
sonunda ortaya çıkan ürünün kalitesinin belirlenmesi yazılım testi ile sağlanır. Bu önemine rağmen, yazılım
sektöründe test safhası planlama ve kaynak eksikliğinden dolayı çoğu kez göz ardı edilmektedir. Son yıllarda,
yazılımda kalite sertifikasyonunu sağlamak, yazılım geliştirme süreçlerini iyileştirmek ve yetenek belirlemek
amaçlarıyla ilgili olarak CMM, CMMI, ISO 15504 gibi çeşitli modeller ortaya çıkmıştır. Sözü edilen bu modeller
içerisinde yazılım test süreçleri ile ilgili olarak doğrulama, sağlama gibi süreç alanları mevcuttur. Ancak var
olan bu süreç alanları, yazılım süreçlerindeki test işlemlerinin detaylarına yönelik yeterli bilgiyi içermemektedir.
Yazılım kalite modellerinin test süreçleri ile ilgili eksikliğini tamamlayıcı olarak TMMi modeli ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu
çalışmada, kaliteli yazılım geliştirme noktasında test süreçlerini iyileştirmek isteyen firmaların TMMi hakkında
bilgilendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Ayrıca, yazılım firmalarının hali hazırda uyguladıkları test süreçlerinin olgunluk
düzeylerini arttırma noktasında nelere dikkat etmeleri gerektiği konusu da çalışma içerisinde ele alınmıştır.
