Problems solved by technology

[0002] When carrying out system-level testing, the existing standards and guidelines lack specific engineering implementation specifications and quantitative engineering-feasible test adequacy criteria, resulting in the lack of clear guidance and regulations for testers when implementing system-level testing. It is completely dependent on the quality and granularity of the system software requirements document, and the adequacy of testing cannot be guaranteed

Embodiment Construction

[0050] In order to make the purpose, content, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the specific implementation manners of the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with examples.

[0051] A method for measuring the adequacy of software testing based on system characteristic states provided by the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0052] Step 1: Evaluation of the real-time data acquisition capability of the system application layer protocol

[0053] Only when the system has the basic ability of real-time data collection of application layer protocol, can the system test of quantitative evaluation have the conditions to carry out. Therefore, first of all, it is necessary to determine the scope and composition of the system under test, analyze the interactive relationship between the various components, clarify the communication methods between them, and evaluate whether the communication between the system compone...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for measuring the adequacy of software testing based on system characteristic states, and relates to the technical field of software testing. The invention can quantitatively evaluate the test adequacy of the system and guide how to improve the test adequacy. As long as the communication protocol format between the systems is obtained and the communication data can be collected, this method can be used to guide the development of system-level testing. The use of the method is not sensitive to the complexity of the system and can support the testing of large and complex systems. It can visually indicate which key feature states of the software are not covered. Analogous to statement coverage, branch coverage, and path coverage in white-box testing, this method can be defined as multi-level test coverage statistics such as feature state coverage, feature state combination coverage, etc., and system test termination conditions that adapt to different safety and reliability requirements.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of software testing, in particular to a method for measuring the adequacy of software testing based on system characteristic states. Background technique [0002] When carrying out system-level testing, the existing standards and guidelines lack specific engineering implementation specifications and quantitative engineering-feasible test adequacy criteria, resulting in the lack of clear guidance and regulations for testers when implementing system-level testing. Depending entirely on the quality and granularity of system software requirements documents, the adequacy of testing cannot be guaranteed. Contents of the invention [0003] (1) Technical problems to be solved [0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is: how to propose a method for measuring the sufficiency of system-level software testing based on system characteristic state, so as to evaluate and promote the sufficien...
