A Comprehensive View on Quality Characteristics of the IoT Solutions
Categorization of quality characteristics helps in a more effective
structuring of the testing process and in the determination of properties,
which can be verified in the system under test. In the emerging area of
Internet of Things (IoT) systems, several individual attempts have been made to
summarize these aspects, but the previous work is rather heterogenic and
focuses on specific subareas. Hence, we consolidated the quality
characteristics into one unified view, which specifically emphasizes the
aspects of security, privacy, reliability and usability, as these aspects are
of often quoted as major challenges in the quality of contemporary IoT systems.
The consolidated view also covers other areas of system quality, which are
relevant for IoT system testing and quality assurance. In the paper, we also
discuss relevant synonyms of particular quality characteristics as presented in
the literature or being used in the current industry praxis. The consolidated
view uses two levels of characteristics to maintain a suitable level of
granularity and specificity in the discussed quality characteristics.Comment: Paper accepted at Urb-IoT 2018 - 3rd EAI International Conference on
