Path coverage assessment for software architecture testing
Lijun Lun, Xin Chi, Hui Xu · IEEE Conference Anthology · 2013
Software architecture is receiving increasingly attention as a critical design level for software systems, architecture testing and assessment is key issues to improve and assure software quality. The development of techniques and tools to support architectural understanding, testing, reengineering, maintenance, and reuse will become an important issue. This paper introduces a testing technology to aid architectural testing. Proposes a family of structural criteria for software architecture specification, sketch and proof the subsume relation between coverage criteria by CW system. The common coverage criteria are assessed against the CW system. The assessment provides a feasible comparison of the effectiveness of test criteria on software architecture. The assessment can help to design more testable software architecture.
