Abstract

Inspection offers an opportunity to detect and remove defects at various points during software development. Early detection will reduce the effect of propagation and amplification of defects into the later phases of software development. Collaborative inspection on the web aims to eliminate the time factor needed to assemble the inspection or review team at a physical location. Through the collaborative mode, software teams can perform software inspection and review from geographically separated places asynchronously. These newly introduced practices have proven that collaborative inspection and review of artifacts on the web is feasible. This paper provides a model for collaborative inspection and review including possible features of model and tool that will support collaborative inspection and review on the web. arabic 10 English 64
