Abstract


Abstract – Software quality is a topic that both software developer and customer have same direction needs. The objective of this research was to find out the factors that have direct effect with software development quality. Two hundred and fifty sample data were collected from twenty small size software development firms during 2018-2019. The software projects were considered collect from small software development firm. The software project, in this research, was chosen from software project that finish time of software development was less than six months. Factor analysis and Structural equation modelling were used to explore and confirm goodness of fit model. The result saturated model was cross validated by fifty testing finished software project. The accuracy of prediction of model was about 71.50 percent.

 

Keywords - Software quality, prediction, factor analysis, structural equation model.
