List of system quality attributes
- List of system quality attributes
Within systems engineering, quality attributes are non-functional requirements used to evaluate the performance of a system. These are sometimes named "ilities" after the suffix many of the words share. Notable quality attributes include:
*
accessibility*
accountability*
accuracy*
*
*
*
agility*
auditability*
availability*
credibility *
standards compliance*
process capabilities*
compatibility*
composability*
*
*
*
*
dependability*
*
*
*
evolvability *
extensibility*
fidelity*
flexibility*
*
Integrity*
interchangeability*
interoperability*
learnability*
maintainability*
manageability*
mobility* modularity
*
*
operability*
portability*
precision*
predictability*
*
relevance*
reliability *
repeatability*
reproducibility*
responsiveness*
reusability*
robustness*
scalability*
seamlessness *
serviceability (a.k.a. supportability)
*
*
simplicity *
stability *
survivability*
sustainability*
*
testability*
*
understandability*
usability
Many of these quality attributes can also be applied to data quality.
Common subsets
* A subset of them (Reliability, Availability, Serviceability, Usability, and Installability) are together referred to as RASUI.
* Another subset used for Software Requirements (Functionality, Usability, Reliability, Performance, Supportability) are together referred to as FURPS.
* For databases RASR is an important concept (Reliability, Availability, Scalability, and Recoverability).
* When dealing with safety-critical systems, the acronym RAMS (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety) is frequently used.
