Resource-Constrained Non-Operational Testing of Software1

In “classical” testing approaches, “learning” is said to occur if testers dynamically improve the efficiency of their testing as they progress through a testing phase. However, the pressures of modern business and software development practices seem to favor an approach to testing which is very akin to a “sampling without replacement” of a relatively limited number of pre-determined structures ...

We distinguish between internal and external operational risks depending on whether the institution has control over them. Internal operational risk naturally arises in the context of model risk, as the institution exposes itself to operational ...
