Korean Software Testing Experience and Know-How Reflected in International Standards

The Telecommunications Technology Association (TTA) of Korea announced on the 23rd that it collected improvement requirements for the international standard on software quality measurement (ISO/IEC 25023) from Korean software testing organizations during the meeting of Working Group 6 (WG6) under Software System Engineering (SC7), a subcommittee of the Joint Technical Committee 1 (JTC1) operated by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), held from the 3rd to the 10th.


This outcome is a result of TTA's active standardization activities. It is significant in that Korea's extensive software (SW) testing experience has been reflected in the revision of a core standard in the field of software quality.


Choi Young-hae, Chairman of TTA, stated, "Reflecting Korea's software testing experience in international standards is an important achievement as it means that our country's software testing capabilities have been internationally recognized." He added, "Going forward, based on TTA's testing and certification experience and expertise, we will continue to strive for international standardization in the field of software quality." TTA is a statutory organization established to support the establishment, dissemination, and testing and certification of standards in information and communication technology (ICT).
