Issues—The Software Crisis 1. Introduction to Chapter The term "software crisis" has been used since the late 1960s to describe those recurring system development problems in which software development problems cause the entire system to be late‚ over budget‚ not responsive to the user and/or customer requirements‚ and difficult to use‚ maintain‚ and enhance. The late Dr. Winston Royce‚ in his paper Current Problems [1]‚ emphasized this situation when he said in 1991: The construction of new software that

SOFTWARE TESTING SOFTWARE TESTING Testing is the process of executing a program with the intent of finding errors. TESTING PRINCIPLES All tests should be traceable to customer requirements. Tests should be planned long before testing begins. The Pareto principle applies to software testing. Stated simply‚ the Pareto principle implies that 80 percent of all errors uncovered during testing will likely be traceable to 20 percent of all program components. TESTING PRINCIPLES Testing should begin
