Block-based test data adequacy measurement criteria and test complexity metrics
Weidong Chen, Jianjun Yang, YE Cheng-qing, Yunhe Pan · Journal of Zhejiang University Science · 2002
On the basis of software testing tools we developed for programming languages, we firstly present a new control flowgraph model based on block. In view of the notion of block, we extend the traditional program-based software test data adequacy measurement criteria, and empirically analyze the subsume relation between these measurement criteria. Then, we define four test complexity metrics based on block. They are J-complexity 0; J-complexity 1; J-complexity 1+; J-complexity 2. Finally, we show the Kiviat diagram that makes software quality visible.
