Spago4Q is a free/open source platform, based on SpagoBI (www.spagobi.org) and used for the assessment of the maturity and effectiveness of the software development process as well as of the software quality. It also supports the evaluation of the compliance of software services with the pre-defined Service Level Agreement. This goal is achieved by evaluating data and measures collected from various development and supporting tools with non-invasive techniques. Spago4Q is currently used both in industrial environments and in research ones, like the Qualipso software platform. Both Spago4Q and SpagoBI projects are hosted by OW2.
