  2. Configuration management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Configuration_management

    It covers the process of controlling modifications to the system's design, hardware, firmware, software, and documentation. Configuration Status Accounting: includes the process of recording and reporting configuration item descriptions (e.g., hardware, software, firmware, etc.) and all departures from the baseline during design and production.

  3. List of system quality attributes - Wikipedia

    Functionality, usability, reliability, performance and supportability are together referred to as FURPS in relation to software requirements. Agility in working software is an aggregation of seven architecturally sensitive attributes: debuggability, extensibility, portability, scalability, securability, testability and understandability.

  4. Computer configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_configuration

    Often, configuration pertains to the choice of hardware, software, firmware, and documentation. Along with its architecture, the configuration of a computer system affects both its function and performance. The configuration of a computer is typically recorded in a configuration file. In modern computer systems, this is created and updated ...

  5. Software performance testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_performance_testing

    Analytical performance modeling allows evaluation of design options and system sizing based on actual or anticipated business use. It is therefore much faster and cheaper than performance testing, though it requires thorough understanding of the hardware platforms.

  6. Software configuration management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_configuration...

    Software configuration management (SCM), a.k.a. software change and configuration management (SCCM), [1] is the software engineering practice of tracking and controlling changes to a software system; part of the larger cross-disciplinary field of configuration management (CM). [2] SCM includes version control and the establishment of baselines.

  7. Configuration item - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Configuration_item

    The term configuration item (CI) refers to the fundamental structural unit of a configuration management system. [1] Examples of CIs include individual hardware or software components. The configuration-management system oversees the life of the CIs through a combination of processes and tools by implementing and enabling the fundamental ...

  8. Computer performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_performance

    In software engineering, performance testing is, in general, conducted to determine how a system performs in terms of responsiveness and stability under a particular workload. It can also serve to investigate, measure, validate, or verify other quality attributes of the system, such as scalability, reliability, and resource usage.

  9. Benchmark (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benchmark_(computing)

    Benchmarking is usually associated with assessing performance characteristics of computer hardware, for example, the floating point operation performance of a CPU, but there are circumstances when the technique is also applicable to software. Software benchmarks are, for example, run against compilers or database management systems (DBMS).
