Commonalities and Differences between Research Paper and ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119-2 standard:. 5

Introduction:
The compliance of standards is a crucial component of software testing methods, as it serves as
an assurance that the duties will be carried out in a manner that is both effective and efficient.
They contribute to a decrease in the risk of errors and system breakdowns by providing
suggested practices for testing. This helps ensure that software products fulfil quality criteria,
which in turn contributes to a reduction in the risk of errors and system breakdowns. In this
study, the topics that are explored include the standard ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119-2 as well as the
repercussions that this standard has for software testing. In addition to this, it examines the
research paper that was authored by S. Kumar and R. Kumar and is titled "A Survey on Software
Testing Techniques and Tools." It cites the standard as a source of information and conducts its
investigation based on that standard. Both of these topics receive extensive coverage throughout
the course of this study, which begins with the introduction and continues until the conclusion.
The standard's complete title is "ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119-2 Software Testing - Part 2: Test
Processes," and it was published in 2011.
“Amongst the acknowledged contributors to the document, which universities were involved (if
any)?”
In the list of people who are contributed with the research paper, there is not a single person
affiliated with a university institution to be found.
Building a testing framework that can be applied to software development projects of any size or
level of complexity is the objective of the standard, which has set this as its primary objective.
“What are key terms and understandings needed for the standard to be understood and
applied?”
“In your own words, what does application of the standard result in? Or in other words, what
does the standard do?”
The quality and dependability of software products are enhanced by its standardised and
methodical approach to testing.
The standard establishes a complete and generally acknowledged framework for software testing,
including the phases of preparation, design, execution, and reporting.
Conclusion:
Therefore, in its conclusion, the study presents a concise summary of its findings and emphasises
how important it is to follow consistent standards while testing software. The document
demonstrates the significance of the standard by saying that the standard is essential in the
software testing sector, pointing out that it is a useful resource for businesses that are looking to
improve their testing techniques, and pointing out that it is a good resource for firms that wish to
improve their testing procedures. In addition to that, the document discusses the significance of
the standard and explains why it is important. After the analysis has been completed, the
conclusion that can be drawn is that the two papers provide a comprehensive set of rules and
processes that are capable of being employed to aid in the performance of software testing that is
both efficient and effective. This conclusion can be drawn because the two documents give a
comprehensive collection of rules and procedures that are capable of being utilised to aid in the
performance of software testing that is both efficient and effective. This particular conclusion is
brought to the reader's notice in the report in order to summarise the findings.
