Systems and software engineering — Systems and software Quality Requirements and Evaluation (SQuaRE): cloud services — Part 2: Quality measurement ISO/IEC DTS 25052-2

Scope

The scope of this new work item is to develop the Technical Specification for a set of quality measures based on the quality (sub)characteristics. For example, the quality measures for the scalability will be provided as follows.

Name Description Measurement Function
Scale-out To what extent do cloud service support X = A/B
scale-out compared to configuration setting? A = Number of scaled servers compared to
the maximum number of horizontally scalable servers

Scale-up To what extent do cloud service support X = A/B
scale-up compared to configuration setting? A = Number of scaled servers compared to
the maximum number of vertically scalable servers

Intended readers of this document as follows.
a) acquirers: evaluate if the system/software products/data fulfils their value proposition, i.e., meets the expected quality,
b) developers: design, implement, and test the system/software products/data to ensure that it meets the expected quality,
c) testers: verify and validate that the system/software products/data meets the expected quality,
d) project managers: plan, monitor, and control the achievement of the expected quality,
e) independent evaluators: evaluate the system/software products/data with the objective criteria, and
f) service developers and providers: design, implement, and provide the IT services to ensure that it meets the expected quality
