Agenda Why care about quality? Professional testing in a factory? How do I to get there? Why HP? Who has done it?
Why care about quality? If all that can happen is a project delay… • Results: HP's ordering system became chaotic • $400M loss in Q3 revenue • Damaged reputation with customers • Three executives were dismissed • HP's shares dropped 15% on the news • What is the impact of a project delay? • Project impact • A four week delay for a 75 person project = $1.3M in cost • 75 people x 900/person/day x 20 days = $1.3M • Business impact • In September 2004, HP struggled with SAP consolidation project resulting in a three week delay for their supply-chain software.

Understanding defects Introduction of defects • Majority of defects are introduced during the requirements and design phase! • Howevermajority of defects are actually detected during user acceptance testing and in production! Detection of defects Source: NIST 2002 RTI Project 7007.011 10 November 1, 2006 HP Confidential
Assessing cost of defects This industry average is used as a baseline to calculate the cost savings Industry References: 3 B. Boehm and V. Basili, "Software Defect Reduction Top 10 List," IEEE Computer, IEEE Computer Society, Vol. 34, No. 1, January 2001, pp. 135-137.

Defect (ISTQB): A flaw in a component or system that can cause the component or system to fail to perform its required function, e.g. an incorrect statement or data definition. A defect, if encountered during execution, may cause a failure of the component or system. Inserted defect: Defect created (inserted) in a phase Contained defect: Defect found in the phase it originated Introduced defect: Defect not found in the phase it originated Detected defect: Finding of an Introduced defect Defect detection rate & cost
