What are the Origins of Software Defects?

When I first stepped into the world of software development, I imagined defects as mysterious glitches. But over time, I realized that the origins of software defects are far from magical. They don’t appear out of thin air. They come from very real human actions. In this article, I’ll explore why defects happen, how they creep into code, and what we can do to stop them. Let’s uncover the truth and improve the quality of our software—step by step.

What Is ITIL Service Transition?

Service Transition plays a crucial role in delivering services that businesses need for smooth operations. I approach this as a bridge between the design phase and the operational stage. It ensures every service is fully prepared to meet its real-world demands. This means taking the Service Design Package and transforming it into an operational service with all necessary elements for ongoing success.

Manage Metadata in Draw.io: A Simple Guide

Metadata is essential for organizing and understanding the details within diagrams. I’ve often found that managing metadata in draw.io can transform how you handle complex projects. Each shape and connector in a diagram can store metadata, or custom properties, which is additional information about those elements. In this post, I’ll explain how to manage metadata effectively and show you a practical business case. By the end, you’ll know how to edit metadata in draw.io and why it matters.

Software Testing Process: A Complete Guide

When I start any software project, I know one thing for sure: quality doesn’t happen by accident. It’s planned. That’s why the software testing process plays a vital role. It’s more than just clicking around and hoping for the best. It’s structured, deliberate, and essential. In this article, I walk you through how I understand, apply, and improve the software testing process. Step by step, I’ll break it down into validation, verification, and everything in between. Moreover, I’ll show how testing helps me detect bugs early, ensure quality, and keep my clients happy—all without draining resources. Let’s dive in.

The Complete Test Concept Guide: What Test Management is

When I begin a new software project, I always specify my test conception early in the process. This isn’t just a good habit—it’s a strategic decision that sets the foundation for efficient, scalable, and reliable testing. In this article, I’ll walk you through how I specify a complete test conception and what each chapter of a solid testing concept should contain. Without a clear structure, even simple test plans can quickly spiral into chaos. Test cases get missed. Responsibilities overlap. Bugs sneak through unnoticed. That’s why I always make sure my test conception includes everything necessary—from strategy design and test types to environment setup, tool selection, and role assignments.

Object-Oriented Elicitation: Requirements in Complex Systems

When I start a software project, I don’t just write code. I ask questions. I try to understand the real world behind the system. That’s especially important when I’m working outside my comfort zone—like designing software for a dental clinic. In such cases, object-oriented elicitation becomes my go-to method. It helps me uncover, organize, and refine the requirements that drive system design. But to really understand how this works, I need to go beyond the code. I need to dive deep into requirements engineering, and even deeper into how we elicit those requirements from people who think very differently from developers. In this article, I’ll walk you through a real-world example: a dentist administration system. Along the way, I’ll show how I used object-oriented elicitation to transform complex, chaotic information into a structured and usable model.
