I don't know that we'll ever be able to agree on "global standards" though. Software is too specialized for that.
The only software standard that I'm reasonably familiar with is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_62304 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_62304 which is specific to Medical Devices. In a 62304-compliant project, we might be able to do something like your example, but it could take a while. OTOH, I'm told that my Aviation counterparts following DO-178 would almost certainly be able to do something comparable.
It is going to be very industry dependent, where "industry" means aviation, or maritime, or railroad, or Healthcare, etc... Just "software" is too general to be meaningful these days.
- kmoser 2y agoThe very point of ISO is to define international standards, many of which are used in software engineering.
- HeyLaughingBoy 2y agoYes, of course. My point is that those standards apply only to specific domains where software is applied, not to the software development industry as a whole.
