Establish defect prevention mechanisms and test sampling strategy to achieve high quality in reduced cycle time

Objective

Motorola Communications Israel Ltd. is an industrial company developing and manufacturing radio equipment and radio related products. MCIL is at the stage where products with embedded software are released to market with ever-growing quality. However, with new complex systems, the overheads required to achieve high quality are becoming substantial and development time is lengthening.

Correcting errors in later stages of the development is much more complicated and much more expensive and time consuming than correcting the same errors in earlier stages. It is intuitively understood that the avoidance of errors is the best way to optimise the development process and shorten the development time.

THE EXPERIMENT
The experiment will investigate patterns of errors that commonly occur in the development process and will define and implement techniques to prevent these errors from occurring. Success in this area will reduce the amount of re-work caused by errors and shorten the development time.

The PIE will define and implement defect prevention methods for each of the phases of the development life cycle and will conclude a strategy for determining the amount of testing needed in a defect prevention environment.

EXPECTED IMPACT AND EXPERIENCE
The experiment will yield a better knowledge of common error types and establish mechanisms to update this knowledge. The results of the experiment may be relevant to a wide range of companies developing telecommunications and real time software. The experience and mechanisms implemented in the experiment can benefit these companies and expedite their defect prevention programs activities.
