PROMOTE SUCCESS IN AN ESSENTIAL PROCESS

Effective peer reviews for all types of work products are essential if software development organizations are to reduce their cost of producing software. Formal inspections of requirements specifications, designs, source code, project plans, and other work products are a proven means for finding errors and improving the quality of software products. By knowing what makes a successful inspection and peer review process, you reduce time and cost of rework.

UTILIZE HARD AND SOFT REVIEW

You will acquire the skills to effectively apply both inspections and several types of less formal reviews to software products. Tied with the technical aspects of inspection and peer review are the interpersonal and social aspects - the soft side - of peer reviews. By understanding and using both the technical and social elements of inspections and reviews, you will increase the success and ability of your software products.
