航天嵌入式软件测试用例典型设计缺陷研究

Typical test cases design faults research of aerospace embedded software

摘要:

作为动态测试充分性的基本评价指标,覆盖率分析只能帮助修正因输入不足而导致的测试用例设计缺陷。针对航天嵌入式软件测试过程中不影响覆盖率统计结果的用例设计缺陷,从测试步骤和预期结果两大测试用例核心要素开展研究,提出十个典型缺陷,分别予以分析,并进行缺陷修正。工程实践证明,这些缺陷的发生率高,具有典型性；修正这些缺陷后,可以有效检出软件设计缺陷；与用例执行后的覆盖率统计数据分析相结合,可以有效提高测试充分性。

Abstract:

As a essential evaluation criteria, coverage analysis can only help to revise the test case design faults due to input deficiency. The research is aimed at test case design faults in the aerospace embedded software testing which do not influence coverage. From the two core elements, test steps and anticipations, ten typical faults are proposed, analyzed, and revised. The evaluation results show that these faults are typical because of high happen rate. After the revision, software faults can be found effectively, and test adequacy can be improved through the connection with the coverage analysis.
