Program Inspections

1.    After addressing identified defects, the -------- decides whether a complete re-inspection is necessary or if the document can be approved for release.

2.    A checklist tailored to the programming language and common programmer mistakes should guide the --------- process.

3.    Data faults include ensuring all program variables are ---------- before their values are used and that all constants have been named.

4.    For control faults, it is important to verify conditions in conditional statements and ensure each ---- is certain to terminate.

5.    Input/output faults involve confirming that all input variables are used and output variables are assigned a ----- before they are output.

6.    Interface faults include checking that function calls have the correct number of --------- and that formal and actual parameter types match.

 

7.    For storage management faults, it is necessary to ensure linked structures are correctly --------and that dynamic storage is allocated and de-allocated properly.

8.    Exception management faults require accounting for all possible ------- conditions.

9.    Each organization should develop its own inspection -------- based on local standards and practices, updating it as new defects are discovered.

10.    The results of the inspection process can be used for process ---------, analyzing defects to eliminate their causes and improve future systems.
