|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | LASR helps development teams identify where their software falls short of important quality goals and which improvements to consider. A small group with existing system knowledge can make an initial assessment and investigate open questions in more detail. | With many open commitments and ideas in daily life, a reliable external storage system emerges. The method relieves the mind so priority and context don't have to compete in memory. | In early initiatives with many uncertainties, planning quickly turns too optimistic. A pre-mortem makes the expected failure visible in advance and sharpens the view of causes, gaps, and countermeasures. |
Complexitydifferent | Medium | Medium | Low |
Timedifferent | 3–4 h for initial assessment; preparation and deeper analysis additional | 1-2 h Setup, laufend | 20–45 min |
Participantsdifferent | 1 or a small team; particularly suitable for 3–4 people | 1 | Small cross-functional group |
Formatdifferent | Workshop + async | Async | Workshop |
Outputdifferent | Lean Mission Statement describing the software’s purpose, Prioritized quality goals and evaluation criteria, Risks and estimated gaps against quality goals, More closely examined findings and open checks | Action Lists, Project List, Review Routine | Risk list, Mitigation plan, Assumption log |
