Towards Preserving Model Coverage and Structural Code Coverage

Towards Preserving Model Coverage and Structural Code Coverage

Embedded systems are often used in safety-critical environments. Thus, thorough testing of them is mandatory. To achieve a required structural code-coverage criteria it is beneficial to derive the test data at a higher program-representation level than machine code. Higher program-representation levels include, beside the source-code level, languages of domain-specific modeling environments wit...

Effective Coverage as a New Metric for Monitoring Progress towards Universal Health Coverage

State Coverage: Software Validation Metrics beyond Code Coverage

Currently, testing is still the most important approach to reduce the amount of software defects. Software quality metrics help to prioritize where additional testing is necessary by measuring the quality of the code. Most approaches to estimate whether some unit of code is sufficiently tested are based on code coverage, which measures what code fragments are exercised by the test suite. Unfort...
