Software fault injection

Improving Software Fault Injection

It has become well-established that software will never become bug-free, which has spurred research in mechanisms to contain faults and recover from them. Since such mechanisms deal with faults, fault injection is necessary to evaluate their effectiveness. However, little thought has been put into the question whether fault injection experiments faithfully represent the fault model designed by ...

Software Faults Emulation by Software Fault Injection

In Computer Science, an emulator is hardware or software or both that duplicates (or emulates) the functions of one computer system (the guest) in another computer system (the host), different from the first one, so that the emulated behavior closely resembles the behavior of the real system (the guest).The computer systems are an affected by software and hardware fault, solved in numerous mech...

A Software Fault Injection Pattern System ()

Problem. Among the various methods to perform Fault Injection, the technique of Software Fault Injection is getting more popular. In this technique, a special piece of code, associated to the system under test, tries to simulate faults. Generally, Fault Injection testing can be done by using a Fault Injection tool, and there is a number of them. However, there are no tools that work under each ...
