Comparison between traditional project and web project:

Web Projects

1. Project managers are not client.2. Often beta technologies are used for testing, often without tech support.3. Pricing model for web projects does not exist.4. Team roles are less specialized.5. Clients are often unwilling to bear the cost of web development.6. Standards for web projects do not exist.7. Project manager’s responsibilities are very broad.

Traditional Projects

1. They are always different.

2. It is not applicable in this case

3. It do exist for traditional projects.

4. More specialized.5. Difficult of traditional projects.

6. Standards for traditional projects exist.7. Not true for these projects.

Communication Issues• Communication is one of the foundational

elements of a good website. It is essential fora positive user experience and for a successfulwebsite that truly benefits its owners.

• Because of the significance of communicationwith visitors, it is an essential considerationfor every designer and website owner and theresponsibility of both.

Quality Assurance• Quality assurance (QA) is a way of preventing

mistakes or defects in manufactured productsand avoiding problems when delivering solutionsor services to customers

• ISO 9000 defines as "part of quality managementfocused on providing confidence that qualityrequirements will be fulfilled”.

• QA is applied to physical products in pre-production to verify what will be made meetsspecifications and requirements, and duringmanufacturing production runs by validating lotsamples meet specified quality controls.

• Two principles included in quality assuranceare: "Fit for purpose" (the product should besuitable for the intended purpose); and "rightfirst time" (mistakes should be eliminated).

• QA includes management of the quality of rawmaterials, assemblies, products andcomponents, services related to production,and management, production and inspectionprocesses.

Testing• Testing is the process of evaluating a system or

its component(s) with the intent to findwhether it satisfies the specified requirementsor not. In simple words, testing is executing asystem in order to identify any gaps, errors, ormissing requirements in contrary to the actualrequirements.

Testing is done in different forms at every phase of SDLC:

• During the requirement gathering phase, theanalysis and verification of requirements arealso considered as testing.

• Reviewing the design in the design phase withthe intent to improve the design is alsoconsidered as testing.

• Testing performed by a developer oncompletion of the code is also categorized astesting.
