Research Trends in Improving the Quality of Software Products with a Focus on Team Characteristics

Many factors play a role in creating a software product in the software production process. Quality measurement criteria have always been focused on the final product and output of the programming team in the world of software engineering. The emphasis of studies in the field of software quality is mainly on product features or system development stages. In addition to reviewing the related models, this study seeks to enter the workspace of software development teams by changing the perspective from the product to the developers and examines the effect of team characteristics on product quality, research ambiguities, and challenges that software researchers may encounter. Some of the most important issues that can be mentioned as the research gaps include many challenges and issues, including the lack of models with different attitudes toward the product, lack of field studies, and insufficient attention to team characteristics.
