In no specific order: # Expertise and capability of the programmers writing the software code. # Degree of pre planning and thought put into the required functionality of the software prior to beginning coding. # Amount of time available before the need to release the software. # Number of resources (people) available to work on the development process. # Complexity and number of the features/functions that the software will perform and the number of other applications with which it must interact. # Amount of time available to test the functionality and scalability of the software prior to release. In general, if you take as a given that the programmers are able to write decent code, the gating factors to software quality are Time, Features/Functions, and Resources. Less time usually means sloppy coding and/or less testing and lower quality. More features/functions requires more time and/or more resources or quality suffers. The number of resources impacts the amount of coding and testing that can be done, which also impacts quality.
