What are the advantages of inspections over testing?

Answer 1

Many defects found in testing are directly traceable to requirements and design flaws that

could have been detected earlier

1.Defects that are found later in the project will not only cost

more to fix, but also work that are from incorrect design and/or requirements are wasted

2.The strengths of

inspections are that a similar process can be applied to a wide range of documents

3.It can it be much easier to find

faults in code standard and traceability with inspection than it is with testing This is because

inspection will find the fault in the code and testing will only find the failure

4.The first is that inspection can found many defects in a single inspection session
