Abstract

In order to detect the errors in the software as much as possible and produce the software products with high quality, it is particularly important to do the quality evaluation of software testing work. In this paper the author did research of measurement of effectiveness of software testing from three aspects of testing method, testing process and testing result. Summarized the present technology condition of measurement of effectiveness of software testing at home and abroad, improved model of measurement of process of effectiveness of software testing, did the experiment of white box testing coverage rate and got the rough measurement value. The use of the proposed measure the effectiveness of software testing methods, analysis of data collected metrics, and then proposed to improve software testing techniques and software testing methods, so that make software testing effectively exert its positive function.
