The E ect of Correlated Faults On Software
نویسندگان
چکیده
The reliability models often assume random testing and statistical independence of faults to keep the analysis tractable. In practice, these assumptions do not hold. This paper presents a reliability modeling approach that considers nonrandom testing. This approach is used to calculate the fault exposure ratio, which characterizes the testing process. The analysis of the experimental data suggests that the fault exposure ratio varies diierently in the early and the later stages of testing. The analysis here presents an explanation of this behavior.

متن کاملSpeci cation - Based Testing Using Cause - E ect Graphs 1 )
In this paper we discuss the advantages and limitations of a speci cation-based software testing technique we call CEG-BOR. There are two phases in this approach. First, informal software speci cations are converted into cause-e ect graphs (CEG). Then, the Boolean OperatoR (BOR) strategy is applied to design and select test cases. The conversion of an informal speci cation into a CEG helps dete...
