For any software project, large or small, architecture is key to managing the intrinsic complexity of software. The design of a system includes its architecture, so, more broadly, design is key to managing software complexity. Informally, architecture partitions a system into parts that are easier to work with than the system as a whole. Let us refer to the parts as architectural elements, or simply elements. With a clean architecture, we can reason about the system in terms of the properties of its elements, without worrying about how the elements are implemented.

Software engineering is the application of engineering methods to software development and evolution. Its principles and practices address three fundamental goals: discover user requirements, manage software complexity, and build quality products and services. This chapter introduces the goals, their associated challenges, and how to deal with the challenges.

The selection of a development process is one of the earliest decisions in the life of a software project. A process orchestrates the workings of a team: it guides what each role does and when in order to define and build a product. This chapter introduces the two main groupings of processes: agile and plan-driven. Agile processes are designed to accommodate requirements changes. Plan-driven processes emphasize careful upfront design. Each process class within these groupings addresses some, but not all, of the challenges faced by projects. Teams therefore customize their processes by borrowing best practices as needed. For example, all teams benefit from essentially the same testing practices.

The combination of reviews, static analysis, and testing is highly effective at detecting defects during software development. By themselves, the individual techniques are much less effective; see . Testing is covered in ; the other techniques are covered in this chapter.
