Quality Control V/s Quality Assurance: Miss Rubab Wafa

Quality assurance focuses on preventing defects by ensuring quality in processes, while quality control focuses on identifying defects in finished products. Quality assurance is a proactive process aimed at improving development and testing processes, while quality control is a reactive process aimed at identifying defects before product release. Both work together, with quality control providing feedback to quality assurance on process issues causing quality problems, and quality assurance determining the root causes and implementing process changes to prevent future issues.

Introduction
• In order to maintain or enhance the quality ,use two
techniques, Quality Control and Quality Assurance.
• These two practices make sure that the end product
or the service meets the quality requirements and
standards defined for the product or the service.
• Are QA and QC same terms? “Big No”………!!!!!
Introduction
• Are QA and QC same terms? Let's
differentiate according to below points:
 Definition
 Focus on
 Goal
 How to Achieve
 Example
 Responsibility
Definition of Quality Assurance

“ Quality Assurance is process oriented and focuses on


defect prevention. Quality Assurance is a set of
activities for ensuring quality in the processes by
which products are developed.”
Definition of Quality Control Quality

“Control is product oriented and focuses on defect


identification. Quality Control is a set of activities
for ensuring quality in products. The activities focus
on identifying defects in the actual products
produced.”
FOCUSES ON…….!!!!!
• Assurance aims to prevent defects with a
focus on the process used to make the
product.
• It is a proactive quality process.
• It identifies weakness in processes to improve
them.
FOCUSES ON…….!!!!!

• Quality Control aims to identify and correct


defects in the finished product.
• It is a reactive process.
Goal of Quality Assurance

The goal of Quality Assurance is to improve


development and test processes so that
defects do not arise when the product is being
developed.
Goal of Quality Control

The goal of Quality Control is to identify


defects after a product is developed and
before it's released.
Examples QA
• internal audits
• Developing checklists
• Establishing standards
Examples QC
• A QC review
• Performing inspections
• Performing testing
Responsible
• Responsible for QA: Everyone on the team
involved in developing the product is
responsible for Quality Assurance.
• Responsible for QC :Quality Control is usually
the responsibility of a specific team that tests
the product for defects.
Working Together
• QC provides feedback to QA person that there
is a problem in the process or system that is
causing product quality problems.
• QA determines the root cause of the problem
and then brings changes to the process to
ensure that there are no quality issues in
future.
