IEEE 730-2002

This standard applies to the development of a software quality assurance plan (SQAP). The existence of this standard should not be construed to prohibit additional content in a SQAP. An assessment should be made for the specific software item to assure adequacy of coverage. Where this standard is invoked for an organization or project engaged in producing several software items, the applicability of the standard should be specified for each of the software items. Although this document does not require the use of IEEE/EIA Std 12207.0-1996 [B17] and IEEE/EIA Std 12207.1-1997 [B18], it is consistent with those two standards. An SQAP meeting the requirements of this standard will be in document compliance with the SQAP information item of IEEE/EIA 12207.1-1997 [B18].
