CSA Group Information technology - Software measurement - Functional size measurement - Part 2: Conformity evaluation of software size measurement methods to ISO/IEC 14143-1 ISO/IEC 14143-2:2011

ISO/IEC 14143-2:2011: establishes a framework for the conformity evaluation of a Candidate FSM Method against the provisions of ISO/IEC 14143-1; describes a process for conformity evaluation of whether a Candidate FSM Method meets the (type) requirements of ISO/IEC 14143-1 such that it is an actual FSM method, i.e. they are of the same type; describes the requirements for performing a conformity evaluation in order to ensure repeatability of the conformity evaluation process, as well as consistency of decisions on conformity and the final result; aims to ensure that the output from the conformity evaluation process is objective, impartial, consistent, repeatable, complete and auditable; provides informative guidelines for determining the competence of the conformity evaluation teams; provides an example checklist to assist in the conformity evaluation of a Candidate FSM Method; and provides an example template for the conformity evaluation report.
