So normally our software development organization + +4 +00:00:09,879 --> 00:00:13,127 +will release this application to its final users, however, once + +5 +00:00:13,127 --> 00:00:16,090 +the software is in operation many things can happen. + +6 +00:00:16,090 --> 00:00:18,950 +So, for example, the environment might change. There might be + +7 +00:00:18,950 --> 00:00:21,940 +new libraries. There might be new systems in which + +8 +00:00:21,940 --> 00:00:25,070 +our software has to operate. Or they may be future + +9 +00:00:25,070 --> 00:00:27,950 +requests, so the users may find out that, guess what, + +10 +00:00:27,950 --> 00:00:30,370 +they want to do something different with the problem that + +11 +00:00:30,370 --> 00:00:32,835 +we gave them. Or, again, and this is one of + +12 +00:00:32,835 --> 00:00:35,970 +the most common occurrences, users might find problems with the + +13 +00:00:35,970 --> 00:00:38,307 +software and may file bug reports and send the bug + +14 +00:00:38,307 --> 00:00:42,090 +reports back to the software developer. These are the reasons + +15 +00:00:42,090 --> 00:00:46,420 +why software maintenance is a necessary phase in software development. + +16 +00:00:46,420 --> 00:00:50,190 +Software maintenance is the activity that sustains the software product + +17 +00:00:50,190 --> 00:00:53,780 +as it evolves throughout its life cycle, specifically + +18 +00:00:53,780 --> 00:00:57,350 +in response to bug reports, feature requests and + +19 +00:00:57,350 --> 00:01:00,890 +environment changes. Development organisations perform three kinds of + +20 +00:01:00,890 --> 00:01:04,450 +maintenance activities: corrective maintenance to eliminate problems with the + +21 +00:01:04,450 --> 00:01:07,740 +code, perfective maintenance to accommodate feature request, and + +22 +00:01:07,740 --> 00:01:09,730 +in some cases just to improve the software, for + +23 +00:01:09,730 --> 00:01:12,230 +example, to make it more efficient, and finally, + +24 +00:01:12,230 --> 00:01:15,650 +adaptive maintenance, to take care of the environment changes. + +25 +00:01:15,650 --> 00:01:18,470 +And after this activities have been performed, the software developer + +26 +00:01:18,470 --> 00:01:21,540 +will produce a new version of the application, will release it + +27 +00:01:21,540 --> 00:01:24,150 +and the cycle will continue through out the lifetime of + +28 +00:01:24,150 --> 00:01:27,440 +the software. That's why maintenance is a fundamental activity and a + +29 +00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,420 +very expensive one. And one of the reasons why maintenance + +30 +00:01:30,420 --> 00:01:34,080 +is expensive, that I want to mention now, is regression testing. + +31 +00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,180 +During maintenance every time you modify your application you have + +32 +00:01:37,180 --> 00:01:41,120 +to regression test the application, where regression testing is the activity + +33 +00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,010 +of retesting software after it has been modified to make sure + +34 +00:01:44,010 --> 00:01:47,320 +that the changes you perform to the software work as expected, + +35 +00:01:47,320 --> 00:01:51,540 +and that your changes did not introduce any unforseen effect. I'm + +36 +00:01:51,540 --> 00:01:53,630 +pretty sure that you're familiar with the case of a new + +37 +00:01:53,630 --> 00:01:56,000 +version of the software being released and just a couple of + +38 +00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,260 +days later another version being released to fix some problems that + +39 +00:01:59,260 --> 00:02:02,000 +occor with the new version. These problems is what we call + +40 +00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,640 +regression errors and they're what regression + +41 +00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,560 +testing targets and tries to eliminate + +42 +00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,240 +before the new version of the software is released into the world. |
