Experimento sobre calidad externa con Test-Driven Development en la industria de telecomunicaciones
Keywords:
quality, CC, computation, experiment, ITL, software, TDDAbstract
Test-Driven Development (TDD) is a software development technique and studies in TDD increased in the last fifteen years. TDD promises positive effects in the development process, however there are few studies in the industrial field. To verify is the TDD programming technique increases the quality of software a controlled experiment was conducted comparing the software development technique TDD (Test-Driven Development) with ITL (Iterative Test Last) and the technique of the ETAPA EP1 Telecommunications Company. The experiment was implemented according to the software engineering experimental process. The analysis clearly shows that quality-wise ITL is statistically significant superior to TDD. ITL increases the quality of the source code of the subject. From the practical point of view, ITL produces better code quality than the ETAPA EP development technique, however in comparison with the TDD approach increases the ETAPA EP technique the quality, but not to the extent as the ITL technique. The experiment allowed to define practical recommendations regarding the development process used in ETAPA EP.
