Software development organizations are adopting the DevOps approach as a strategy to stay competitive. The impact of these initiatives is related to reducing development time while maintaining software quality. However, little research work has specifically indicated which aspects of quality have been measured. In this paper, we present the results of a systematic mapping study where we identify software product quality characteristics that have been studied in DevOps settings. The results are complemented by overall DevOps performance measurement initiatives and those that measure software product quality. Given the lack of research work in this area, as a first step in defining a product quality measurement process in DevOps settings, we identified some maintainability metrics and contextual factors to consider in these initiatives.

Keywords : DevOps; software product quality characteristics; measures; maintainability.
