- Explain the Six-Sigma quality constraints and provide a justification as to why the software development company should consider it.

- Propose a testing strategy for a software development project that ensures high quality of the software delivered.
- Describe the idiosyncrasies of software, and explain why software needs a different set of rules for testing and for quality control as opposed to those used in hardware.
