what is master review and peer review..

Answer / vartika kumar

Peer Reviews are considered a best industry practice for
detecting software defects early and learning about
software artifacts. Peer Reviews are composed of software
walkthroughs and software inspections and are integral to
software product engineering activities. A collection of
coordinated knowledge, skills, and behaviors facilitates
the best possible practice of Peer Reviews. The elements of
Peer Reviews include the structured review process,
standard of excellence product checklists, defined roles of
participants, and the forms and reports. Software
inspections are the most rigorous form of Peer Reviews and
fully utilize these elements in detecting defects. Software
walkthroughs draw selectively upon the elements in
assisting the producer to obtain the deepest understanding
of an artifact and reaching a consensus among participants.
Measured results reveal that Peer Reviews produce an
attractive return on investment obtained through
accelerated learning and early defect detection. For best
results, Peer Reviews are rolled out within an organization
through a defined program of preparing a policy and
procedure, training practitioners and managers, defining
measurements and populating a database structure, and
sustaining the roll out infrastructure.

Answer / vartika kumar

In software development, peer review refers to a type of
software review in which a work product (normally some form
of document) is examined by its author and/or one or more
colleagues of its author, in order to evaluate its
technical content and quality.
Management representatives should not be involved in the
conduct of a peer review except when included because of
specific technical expertise, or when the work product
under review is a management-level document. Managers
participating in a peer review should not be line managers
of any other participants in the review.
The purpose of a peer review is to provide "a disciplined
engineering practice for detecting and correcting defects
in software artifacts, and preventing their leakage into
field operations" according to the Capability Maturity
Model.
When performed as part of each Software development process
activity, peer reviews identify problems and fix them early
in the lifecycle.
