Scope

This standard applies to software packages. Examples include text processing programs, spreadsheets, database programs, graphics software packages, programs for calculating technical or scientific functions, and utility programs. It stipulates: - software package requirements (quality requirements); - for these requirements; how to test the software package details (test details, especially third-party testing). It concerns only the software packages to be provided or delivered, not the process of their creation (including activities and intermediate products such as specifications). The supplier's quality system is outside the scope of this standard. Note: Some software requires additional requirements, such as software with high security requirements.
