Introduction
TQAuditor is the system that evaluates and monitors translation quality and allows you to:
- compare unedited translation made by a translator with edited version received from an editor;
- generate a report about editor’s corrections;
- classify each correction by mistake type and severity, thus allowing to get the translation quality evaluation score. By default, a maximum score is set to 100 points;
- ensure anonymous communication between a translator and an editor regarding corrections and mistakes classification;
- automate a process of maintaining the evaluation project;
