Description :
Software quality is vitally important to the success of a business, as a single undetected error or defect during the software development process could have disastrous consequences during a business operation. Software review is one of the methods used to detect defects. This process maintains the quality of the product by reviewing interim deliverables during development.
Modern Software Review: Techniques and Technologies provides an understanding of the critical factors affecting software review performance and gives practical guidelines for software reviews.
