Testing Approach of Component Security Based on Fault Injection
Jinfu Chen, Yansheng Lu, Xiaodong Xie · 2007
Component-Based Software Engineering (CBSE) has been the research focus in the field of software engineering at present. But problems with the reliability and security of components have not yet been resolved, which worried the component developer and user. Testing the software components is an important approach which guarantees and enhances their reliability and security. This paper proposes a testing approach of component security based on fault injection (TAFI), and then defines and discusses requirement specification of components security and fault injection model. In addition, 31 software components are analyzed using our approach based on fault injection model. The case study shows that our approach is effective and operable.
