    • Software Quality Assurance (SQA) is a process that ensures that software products and services meet defined quality standards and customer expectations. The goal of SQA is to ensure that the software development process is robust, efficient, and effective in delivering high-quality software products and services to customers.

      SQA involves various activities throughout the software development life cycle (SDLC) and beyond. Some of the SQA activities include:

      • Requirements Analysis: This involves reviewing and analyzing the software requirements to ensure that they are complete, consistent, and achievable.
      • Design Review: This involves reviewing the software design to ensure that it meets the requirements, is scalable, maintainable, and robust.
      • Code Review: This involves reviewing the source code to ensure that it is efficient, secure, and adheres to coding standards.
      • Testing: This involves executing software applications to identify defects, bugs, and errors, and ensure that the software meets its functional and non-functional requirements.
      • Configuration Management: This involves managing and controlling software development artifacts such as source code, requirements, and documentation.
      • Release Management: This involves managing the software release process to ensure that software is deployed in a controlled and consistent manner.
      • Quality Metrics: This involves defining and measuring quality metrics to track the progress of the software development process and identify areas for improvement.
    • While SQA covers a broad range of activities, there are some related activities that are not considered part of SQA. For example, software development and project management are related activities, but they are not part of SQA. Similarly, software maintenance, customer support, and training are also related activities, but they are not part of SQA.

In summary, SQA is a process that ensures that software products and services meet defined quality standards and customer expectations. SQA involves activities such as requirements analysis, design review, code review, testing, configuration management, release management, and quality metrics. Other related activities such as software development, project management, maintenance, customer support, and training are not considered part of SQA.
