BS ISO IEC 33063:2015 pdf free download – Information technology — Process assessment — Process assessment model for software testing.
This International Standard
defines a process assessment model that meetsthe requirements ofISO/IEC33004 and thatsupportsthe performance of an assessment of process capability using the process measurement frameworkdefined in ISO/IEC 33020.The process assessment model provides indicators for guidance on theinterpretation of the process purposes and outcomes as defined in ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119-2 and theprocess attributes as defined in lsO/IEC33020, and
provides guidance, by example, on the definition, selection, and use of assessment indicators.A process assessment model comprises a set of indicators of process performance and process capability.The indicators are used as a basis for collecting the objective evidence that enables an assessor toassign ratings, following the requirements of ISo/IEC 33002.The set of indicators included in thisInternational Standard is not intended to be an all-inclusive set nor is it intended to be applicable in itsentirety.Subsets that are appropriate to the context and scope of the assessment should be selected.The process assessment model in this International Standard is directed at assessment sponsorsand competent assessors who wish to select a model and associated documented process method forassessment (for either capability determination or process improvement).
Any process assessment model for software testing meeting the requirements defined in ISO/IEC33004concerning models for process assessment may be used for assessment. Different models and methodsmight be needed to address differing business and testing needs.T’his assessment model is provided asan exemplar of a model meeting all the requirements expressed in ISO/IEC 33004.

4 Overview of the process assessment model
4.1 General ISO/IEC 33063 provides an exemplar
Process assessment model (PAM) for software testing that includes examples of assessment indicators. The process reference model (PRM) defined in ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119-2, together with the process attributes defined in ISO/IEC 33020, establish the process assessment model used as a common basis for performing assessments of software testing process capability, allowing for the reporting of results using a common rating scale. The process assessment model is a two-dimensional model of process capability.
In one dimension, the process dimension, the processes are defined and classified into process categories. In the other dimension, the capability dimension, a set of process attributes grouped into capability levels is defined. The process attributes provide the measurable characteristics of process capability.
