Engineering Aid / Configuration Management / Quality Assurance
(Configuration Management)
Identification and documentation of physical and functional characteristics of configuration
items.
Any changes to characteristics of those configuration items.
Recording and reporting of change processing and implementation of the system.
I was involved in every phase a software product goes through between when it is conceived
and
When it is no longer available for use. The software life-cycle typically includes the
following: requirements analysis, design, construction, testing (validation), installation,
operation, maintenance, and retirement.
(Quality Assurance)
as the QA of a commercial product would oversee the alpha testing, where an early version
of the product is tested at the developer's site, and I then received improved software
according to specifications.
o As an almost complete version of the product is made available for beta testing by
(selected) real users I was present to insure all procedures were follow as per
specifications.
o I identified faults during beta testing that should be fixed before the product is
released for full scale manufacturing and distribution.
