INTRODUCTION TO CMM :-

CMM : Capability Maturity Model

CMM was developed by software engineering institute in 1986.

Framework that describes the key elements of an effective software process.

What are the levels of CMM?

Initial Repeatable Defined Managed Optimising

Level 1:- Initial

Team tackles projects in different ways each time.

Can have strong successes, but may not repeat. 

Success comes from smart people doing the right things.

Hard to recover from good people leaving

Most S/W development organizations are Level 1.

Level 2 :- Repeatable

Realistic project commitments based on results observed on previous projects.

Software project standards are defined and faithfully followed

Processes may differ between projects.

earlier successes can be repeated

Level 3 :- Defined

The software process for both management and engineering activities is documented, standardized, and integrated into a standard software process for the organization.

All projects use an approved, tailored version of the organization’s standard software process for developing an maintaining software.

Level 4 :- Managed

Detailed measures of the software process and product quality are collected.

Narrowing the variation in process performance to fall within acceptable quantitative bounds

When known limits are exceeded, corrective action can be taken.

Quantifiable and predictable

Level 5:- Optimising

Continuous process improvement is enabled by quantitative feedback from the process and from piloting innovative ideas and technologies.

Goal is to prevent the occurrence of defects.

Data on process effectiveness used for cost benefit analysis of new technologies and proposed process changes

It is a goal, not a method.

Being used just as stamp of approval.

Doesn’t say anything about software.

Doesn’t help in a crisis.
