The BIST(Build-In-Self-Test) for software is a new concept in software testing and design for testability,which comes from the BIST for hardware testing.The main idea is Template can be designed in advance,which can be used to embed in the program under test.The test complexity can be reduced when this method applied to the software testing.Template is a cornerstone in the BIST for software,which affect the effectiveness and efficiency in software testing.This paper discusses the implementation of Template in detail.According to the fault model for software,the program can be optimized by program instrumentation.Furthermore,there are more useful information can be generated for the test case.
