Quality Characteristics, COBIT, and CMMI
e software quality characteristics, as defined in IEEE 9126, mostly
focus on functionality and user’s perspective, whereas the seven dis-
tinct end qualities of COBIT focus on performance and security per-
spectives and consistency of the software (Figure 1.6).
It is remarkable that CMMI basically include functional perspec-
tive and performance and even load and stress perspective as added
duration, predictability, timeliness, and accuracy.
