  ABSTRACT: In order to make most software engineers and managers pay more attention to software quality at source level, two confusing terms-coding standard and programming style-were reviewed and compared. An evolutionary model of quality assurance at source code level was proposed, which implies that coding standard should be better accepted and more emphasized than programming style. Our current researches on evaluating the compliance with coding standards will likely make the strategy of quality assurance at source code level more operable.
