Abstract :
Software can be considered as a masterpiece of technology. Thanks to software products and services, people and organizations are able to perform daily and necessary tasks. Therefore, the demand of software development is enormous as well as the amount of software projects that are not completed successfully. In addition, as we will mention later on, 32.6% in average of the original features are not presented in the final products. This phenomenon is clearly a problem of a poor software quality strategy applied on the software project development process. Despite there are some software quality assurance set of tools and approaches like quality models, quality frameworks and so on, these are incapable to be implemented as quick as needed by a small team of developers. Moreover, these approaches do not operate in a holistic perspective through all the software development lifecycle steps. This work aims to show the lack of a software quality framework whose characteristics incorporate agility, easy to follow and that works in all the software development process.
