Competitive analysis, an important type of software testing, involves comparing your software system under test with competitor systems. Even if your system does not have explicit competitors, you can consider previous builds of your own system as implied competitors. The goal is to be able to compare the overall quality of your software system with similar systems. The key here is overall quality, which is not so easy to measure. You must take into account many different attributes such as functionality, security, and usability.
