Quality Engineering: built-in quality from the design phase

'Elevate your app quality right from the design phase with the QE Score'

Quality Engineering (QE) goes beyond software testing. It encompasses a comprehensive approach to quality, integrated throughout the entire development lifecycle. Its goal is to ensure robust, high-performance, and secure applications from the design stage, relying on automation and continuous analysis of key metrics. The QE Score is fully aligned with this approach, measuring the quality maturity of projects and supporting their continuous improvement.

01
Reactive Quality Approach

◼ No automated tests


◼ No CI/CD, manual deployments


◼ Numerous bugs in production

Quality Engineering Score - Maturity level 1
02
Initial Quality Approach

◼ Unit and integration tests


◼ First CI/CD pipelines


◼ Code analysis tools

Quality Engineering Score - Maturity level 2
03
Structured Quality Approach

◼ Adoption of DevOps practices


◼ Automation of UI, API, performance, and security testing


 

Quality Engineering Score - Maturity level 3

◼ Implementation of the QE Score

04
Integrated Quality Approach

◼ Frequent deployments


◼ Quality & secu integrated from the development stage


Quality Engineering Score - Maturity level 4

Strategy based on QE Score metrics

05
Predictive Quality Approach

◼ Automatic detection of issues

◼ Self-adaptive tests (AI, Machine Learning)


 

Quality Engineering Score - Maturity level 5

AI deviation control based on QE Score

Quality Engineering : why use a score ?

'Evaluate the quality of your application developments based on common rules and criteria'

Quality Engineering Score - Examples of types of tests or quality metrics that can be integrated

🌡Comparison

Evaluate the quality maturity of applications through a standardized scoring system.

Improvement

Identify key improvement areas to elevate application quality.

💬 Communication

​Communicate an objective score to ensure quality is transparent across all levels.

👁️‍🗨️ Visibility

Deliver actionable insights on functional quality, performance, and security.

​☑ Empowerment

Make clear and actionable metrics available to each team.

Quality Engineering Score: objectives and impacts

'From deployment to maintenance: the measurable benefits of the QE Score'

CFR

Reduction of the Change Failure Rate (CFR) → Fewer failures during production deployments

MTTR

Improvement of the Mean Time to Restore (MTTR) → Faster recovery in case of an incident

Rollbacks

Reduction of rollbacks and hotfixes → Fewer rollbacks during deployments

Lead Time

Optimization of lead time and deployment frequency → More frequent deployments

Stability

Better stability and reliability of applications → Improved user experience

Maintenance

Less corrective maintenance → Optimization of IT costs

Standardization

Standardization of quality practices at scale → Facilitates agile/devops scaling

Prioritization

Helps with technical and product prioritization → Focus on high ROI actions

Get started with your QE Score in 30 minutes

'From the resources provided'

The QE Score is a powerful tool to measure, compare, and optimize software quality. But where to start? In less than 30 minutes, you can:

  •  Set up your first application in the QE Score

  •  Connect testing and analysis tools (CI/CD, SonarQube, Jira, etc.)

  •  Generate your first score and track your quality metrics on a dashboard
