Every failed software project has a confession buried somewhere in its post-mortem. It usually reads something like this: we didn't really understand what the users needed. Or: the requirements kept changing. Or, most damningly of all: we built exactly what they asked for, and it wasn't what they wanted. Requirements failure is the original software sin. It is the problem that sits upstream of every other problem — the miscommunication that multiplies across months of development, compounding silently until it erupts at delivery, when it is far too late and far too expensive to fix. ...

Every software project that has ever slipped its deadline, bloated its budget, or shipped with embarrassing defects has one thing in common: someone, somewhere, lost control of change. A line of code was altered without authorisation. A specification diverged silently from the product it described. A version was released that no one could fully account for. Configuration management — unglamorous, procedural, indispensable — is the discipline that prevents all of this. And yet it remains one of the least understood and most frequently neglected practices in software development. Software...

Every software project that has ever careened off the rails, blown its budget, or shipped a defective product to an embarrassed client had one thing in common: insufficient review. The uncomfortable truth about software development is that defects found late cost exponentially more to fix than defects found early — and most defects are found late because the teams involved either skipped the review process entirely, or conducted it badly. Software Reviews & Audits: A How To Guide for Project Staff is the book that fixes that problem. Written by David Tuffley and grounded in the ...
