Quality requirements of the client The primary criteria are the run times for the various functions and the correctness of payment transactions and automatic operation. The average processing times for manual activities (payment transactions, provision of information, account management) should be reduced considerably from their current levels. The automatic functions are executed outside the bank staff's normal working hours. This period thereby represents a natural run time barrier. The following procedure can be adopted to obtain an adequate criterion for the run time of the automatic functions as a function of the quantity of data to be processed: Periods involving particularly high work volumes (e.g. monthly, quarterly or annual changes) must be taken as the basis for the anticipated level of data. The anticipated maximum level must be determined for each automatic function. The actual volume of data which needs to be considered is derived from the sum of the maximum levels multiplied by a safety factor of 2. All data should be managed in a relational database management system (RDBMS) wherever possible. This solution is mandatory for customer and account data. |

Quality assurance measures required In addition to all measures resulting from the application of the development method, particular attention must be paid to the test documentation and related efforts (so far we have not drawn up records for stand-alone tests). This gives rise to the following provisional QA-related activities and measures:
