Software Quality Study Of “Spiral Model Minimization” For Inventory Software On Mobile With Fintech Features

Abstract

Minimization of process model is very much needed in development as customer does not want quality of highest order always. Process models output very high quality in products which is always not the requirement. Removing and decreasing some process activities bring out good quality products may not be the highest quality ones. That brings the cost and months of development to lower side. We are conducting this research to propose a minimized SPIRAL version to develop Application software such as inventory with finance features running on mobile platforms. We just try to find out effect of minimizing activities such as ‘architectural design’ and ‘UI/UX design’ on cost, quality and schedules with simulated data of 50 samples. Over work on UI/UX prototyping and architectural designs is considered as waste and is mentioned in good research papers cited. For readers’ interest functional requirements and full analysis PYTHON code is also made a part of this paper. Minimizing UI/UX prototyping and architectural design saves ~20% cost upfront. However, statistical, effect-size, and ISO-model analysis show significant deterioration in: usability (largest effect); maintainability; reliability and performance.
