Quality Control is used to verify the quality of the output.

7) Quality Assurance develops the quality in the product.

Quality Control checks the Quality of the product.

8) The goal of Quality Assurance is to prevent introducing defects in the PRODUCT which help to improve the development and testing processes.

The goal of Quality Control is to identify the defects in the PRODUCT after it is developed.

9) QA is Pro-active means it identifies weaknesses in the processes.

QC is Reactive means it identifies the defects and also corrects the defects or bugs also.

10) QA - It does not involve executing the program or code.

QC - It always involves executing the program or code.

11) All peoples who are involved in the developing PRODUCT responsible for the quality assurance.
