Software testing Resource allocation and release time decisions are vital for the software systems. The objective behind such critical decisions may differ from firm to firm. The motive of the firm may be maximization of software reliability or maximization of number of faults to be removed from each module or it may be minimization of number of faults remaining in the software or minimization of testing resources. Taking into consideration these different aims, various authors have investigated the problem of resource allocation and release time problem. In this paper we investigate various software release policies and resource allocation problem, for example, policies based on the dual constraints of cost and reliability.

Constraint‐based human resource allocation in software projects

Resource allocation in a software project is crucial for successful software development. Among various types of resources, human resource is the most important as software development is a human‐intensive activity. Human resource allocation is very complex owing to the human characteristics of developers. The human characteristics affecting allocation can be grouped into individual‐level characteristics and team‐level characteristics. At the individual level, familiarity with tasks needs to be taken into account as it affects the performance of developers. In addition, developers have different levels of productivity, depending on their capability and experience; the productivity of developers also varies according to tasks. At the team level, characteristics such as team cohesion, communication overhead, and collaboration and management also affect human resource allocation. As these characteristics affect the efficiency of project execution, we treat them as constraints of human resource allocation in our approach. We identify individual‐level constraints and team‐level constraints based on the literature and interviews with experts in the industry. With these constraints, our approach optimizes the scheduling of human resource allocations, resulting in more realistic and efficient allocations. We also provide a guideline supporting various factors, with respect to roles and module characteristics, to estimate the productivity of developers based on COCOMO II. As productivity data are hard to obtain and manage, our guideline can provide a useful direction for human resource allocation in case of software projects. To validate our proposed approach, we document a case study using real project data. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
