A Multi-Factor Coverage based Test Case Prioritization Technique for Object Oriented Software
Vedpal, Naresh Chauhan · International Journal of System and Software Engineering · 2015
Test case prioritization technique creates the sequence of test cases for execution in such a way that the test cases with higher rate of fault detection are executed earlier than those test cases which have lower rate of fault detection. In this paper a new algorithm is proposed to prioritize the test cases based on coverage of object oriented programming factors. The factors are considered on the basis of complexity and probability of errors introduced by them. For the experimental validation and analysis the proposed test case prioritization algorithm is applied on two case studies. The analyzed case studies are implemented in C++ language. By using the presented algorithm it helps to reduce the cost and time for testing the software.
