It is essential to study quality of software production like others. Software productions have special properties. They are intangible. So, qualitative evaluation encountered with complexity. Hence, proposing a model in order to evaluate the quality of Software productions is considerable to most software managers and experts. In this paper, regarding to improve software productions quality, the process of software production has been determined, using CMM standard framework of maturity level. In CMM it does not present a method for measurement and evaluation maturity level, the presented process in CMM standard mapped by COBIT control objectives has been combined in the process of software productions development in developed hybrid framework. In this research, the processes have been mapped utilizing focus and established group, in parallel of software production in different maturity level of CMM mapped by COBIT framework. In order to show the capabilities of proposed framework, the hybrid evaluation model was employed in a software developing organization as a case study. According to the results of evaluation, improvements proceedings and action plans have been proposed and discussed to enhance the software production processes.

“…The reusable unit test cases are defined using the method specifications of the hooks and class invariants during the framework engineering stage and reused as-is or customized during the application engineering stage to build applications from objectoriented application frameworks using the test-first development approach. In order to reduce the testing effort and hence increase the testability of the framework-based applications, Goel et al [88] identify flexibility, the internal quality factor, at the hook point of the framework affects the reusability of test cases generated during framework development and propose a flexibility based testability model. Further, in their studies, Goel et al [89] empirically prove that an increase in the flexibility at the hook points of the framework reduces the reuse of basic test cases and hence increases the testing effort.…”

Testing effort consumes more than half of all development effort and is one of the important factors, which obstruct quality assurance. Software reuse enhances quality and productivity and at the same time reduces the time-to-market of the software products. As reuse applies to the development process, so too, it applies to the testing process. In this paper, we discuss reuse-oriented test approaches, which are used to reduce the testing effort. Further, we present the state-of-the-art in reuse-oriented test approaches employed in reuseoriented development processes. At the end of the current paper, we argue that the current trend is towards built-in test and model based testing in the applications developed through reusable software.

The Second International Workshop on Games and Software Engineering (GAS 2012) was held in June 2012, collocated with ICSE 2012 in Zurich, Switzerland. GAS 2012 explores issues that crosscut the software engineering and the game engineering communities. Advances in game engineering techniques can be adopted by the software engineering community to develop more engaging applications across diverse domains: education; healthcare; fitness; sustainable activities (e.g., recycling awareness); and so on. Successful computer games feature a property that is not always found in traditional software: they are highly engaging. Engaging games enthrall players and result in users willing to spend increasing amounts of time and money playing them. Nine submissions were accepted for the workshop, which also featured a panel session and an informal poster session.
