Abstract

Applying equal testing and verification effort to all parts of a software system is not very efficient, especially when resources are tight. Therefore, one needs to low/high fault frequency components so that testing/verification effort can be concentrated where needed. Such a strategy is expected to detect more faults and thus improve the resulting reliability of the overall system. The authors present the optimized set reduction approach for constructing such models, which is intended to fulfill specific software engineering needs. The approach to classification is to measure the software system and build multivariate stochastic models for predicting high-risk system components. Experimental results obtained by classifying Ada components into two classes (is, or is not likely to generate faults during system and acceptance rest) are presented. The accuracy of the model and the insights it provides into the error-making process are evaluated.>

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
