Impact of Software Metrics on Software Quality using McCall Quality Model: In-Depth Analysis

Abstract

Software metrics plays a very vital role in life cycle of software development. Rapid software development techniques and tools have made it very complex to fully control the quality of a software. Software metrics are required to make sure that the quality of software is fully under control. Many software metrics have already been developed and applied to control the quality of software products. Software metrics is the measurement of quality in which performance is measured against quality standards to check whether they are according to the expectations. Quality metrics are also used to determine customer requirements into acceptable performance measures. This paper discusses the concepts of software quality, quality factor model, mapping according to McCall Quality Model & the quality metrics. The act of applying software quality measurements to functional components and to keep up with factors is a mind-boggling task. Effective software quality affirmation is exceptionally reliant upon quality methods. Future examination is needed to expand out and work on the approach to widen measurements that have been accepted on one venture, utilizing our rules, legitimate proportions of value on future software project. This paper also dives deep into the impacts of the various software metrics over different quality factors and explains the relationship between them.
