Abstract
Research and study of Software Quality has Traditionally Focused on the Overall Product Quality Rather than on the sub-phase’s milestones. There are many attempts over software testing as a standalone development phase which introduced in the literature; these efforts lacked the dynamic nature which has a diverse effect on the maintenance phase. This study will present the current software testing models; their challenges and at the end it will present our new dynamic model for applying quality assurance requirements over the sub-phases of the testing model. Quality properties may include as performance, efficiency, reliability, etc., new model will present for Improving the effectiveness and efficiency of the testing process through applying the quality requirements, designing high quality products, producing software with high Cost optimization, satisfying the product stakeholders.
Keywords:
Dynamic model, software development life cycle, software quality, software testing, software verification and validation,
