Estimating Rates of Fault Insertion and Test Effectiveness in Software Systems
Allen P. Nikora, John C. Munson · NASA Technical Reports Server (NASA) · 1998
In developing a software system, we would like to estimate the total number of faults inserted into a software system, the residual fault content of that system at any given time, and the efficacy of the testing activity in executing the code containing the newly inserted faults.
