CMMI and TMMi complement each other in many ways. While CMMI focuses on improving broader software development processes, TMMi specifically addresses testing. Implementing CMMI provides value to test organizations by enabling a structured and continuous improvement approach that can incorporate TMMi as part of the overall process.
CMMI's continuous representation allows organizations to implement specific process areas related to testing (like verification and validation) and integrate TMMi practices for continuous improvement in their testing processes. Organizations following TMMi may also refer to CMMI practices for complementary process improvements in areas such as configuration management, planning, and performance measurement.
TMMi Reference:
TMMi outlines how CMMI's process areas, such as Verification and Validation, provide critical value for testing organizations.
CMMI's structure supports continuous process improvement that aligns well with TMMi's structured approach to test process maturity.
