Abstract
Today software systems play a critical role in various aspects of human life, and become part of everyday life. Many of these systems are essential for the completion of day-to-day activities. The increased reliance on computer applications, and organization that produced software puts more and more strain on software developers and software systems itself. For these reasons many international standards, requirements, and constrains were established to assure quality of software. In this work the most important fundamentals of software quality assurance used during life cycle development process (LCDP) will be covered. Specially that used in coding phase. This phase is a very important period for all software, because the cure of software system will be established here. Therefore it was sliced in detailes, and all of its aspects were recovered like: Software metrics, Software quality factors, and software quality models like McCall's model, Boehm's model, ISO 9126 model, and SATC NASA model. By comparing and studying these models the System for Measuring Source Code Quality Assurance was retrieved. Using this system over 30 source code metrics, 9 quality factors can be measured and overall quality might be calculated.
