Automated assessment of program and system quality

Software quality issues play a dominant role in the development of large scale software systems. High quality software enhances reuse potential and facilitates software maintenance activities. However, at present, software quality assessment is a labor intensive, error prone, time consuming process. Automated quality assessment of software systems is a cost effective alternative to ensure compliance with system quality objectives. This paper discusses how reverse engineering technology can be leveraged to solve the needs of software quality assurance teams.<
