Abstract

The results of a joint effort of researchers and practitioners to develop an instrument for setting priorities in software product quality in the first life cycle phase of software engineering are presented. Contrary to the specification of functional requirements, the identification of software quality factors is hardly supported by CASE methods and tools. Because of the dynamic nature of this prioritization process, the different types of participants involved, and the complex interrelations between software quality factors, CASE tool support is of utmost importance. Implementation of the instrument is suggested in automated business analysis techniques of current (advanced) CASE tools
