What does software quality mean to you?

Software Quality means different things to different people in different contexts[1]. In this workshop we would like to explore these different meanings of software quality. We would like the participants to share their perspectives with each other and, from those, build a shared mission statement for software quality.

We will introduce techniques to get to a shared mission statement. The techniques we will be using are based on the process[2] that Cucumber Ltd. went through to create their company mission statement.

Takeaways:
- Learn and consider different perspectives on Software Quality
- How to use the strong words process to build a shared mission statement
