Abstract

MUNOZ, Mirna; PERALTA, Manuel  and  LAPORTE, Claude Y.. Analysis of weaknesses that present the Very Small Entities in the implementation of the ISO/IEC 29110 standard: A comparison between the state of art and the state of practice. RISTI [online]. 2019, n.34, pp.85-96. ISSN 1646-9895.  https://doi.org/10.17013/risti.34.85-96.

Due to the importance of Very Small Entities in the software industry, today, organizations such as ISO, are focused on the development of standards that push their competitiveness, reinforcing the use of proven software engineering practices, and being adequate to the specific characteristics of this type of organizations, such as the ISO/IEC 29110 series of standards. However, Very Small Entities have shown weaknesses in the implementation of this series. This article makes a comparison between the state of the art and the state of practice concerning the implementation of the ISO/IEC 29110 standard in very small entities. The results show that the main weaknesses are related to the lack of execution of verification and validation activities, and the development and/or documentation of cases and test procedures.

Keywords : Very Small Entities; VSEs; ISO/IEC 29110; weakness; best practices implementation.
