Introduction to Quality Assurance

Quality assurance (QA) is a systematic approach that ensures products or services consistently meet customer expectations. It involves creating processes and standards to prevent defects and deviations from specifications. By focusing on quality assurance, organizations aim to deliver reliable, high-quality products or services that satisfy customer needs.

Key Principles of Quality Assurance QA is guided by several key principles: Continuous Improvement: QA emphasizes ongoing enhancement of processes and systems to achieve better quality outcomes over time. Prevention over Inspection: Rather than relying solely on detecting defects after they occur, QA emphasizes preventing defects from happening in the first place. Clear Standards and Specifications: Establishing clear and measurable quality standards ensures that everyone involved understands expectations and criteria for success.
