Quality assurance (QA) is a way of preventing mistakes or defects in manufactured products and avoiding problems when delivering solutions or services to customers; which ISO 9000 defines as part of quality management focused on providing confidence that quality requirements will be fulfilled.
The difference is that QA is process oriented and QC is product oriented. Testing, therefore is product oriented and thus is in the QC domain. Testing for quality isn't assuring quality, it's controlling it. 1  Quality Assurance makes sure you are doing the right things, the right way.  Quality Control makes sure the results of what you've done are what you expected.
