Continuous model for software reliability demonstration testing considering damage size of software failures
This study proposes a continuous model for software reliability demonstration testing, which takes the damage size of software failures into consideration. In the proposed procedure, the software being tested is accepted if the number of software failures does not exceed a prespecified value, s and if the total damage size of software failures is less than another prespecified value, d. Based on the producer's and consumer's risks, an algorithm for designing a software reliability demonstration test is discussed. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
