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.
