Abstract: Abstract We consider the problem of planning inspections and other tasks within a software development (SD) project with respect to the objectives quality (no. of defects), project duration, and costs. The considered model of SD processes comprises the phases of coding, inspection, test, and rework and includes assigning tasks to persons and generating a project schedule. Based on this model we discuss a multiobjective optimisation problem. For solving the problem (i.e., finding an approximation of the efficient set) we develop a multiobjective evolutionary algorithm. Details of the algorithm are discussed as well as results of its application to sample problems.
