Genislab TechnologiesThere are many types of test coverage. Test coverage can be used in any level of the testing. Test coverage can be measured based on a number of different structural elements in a system or component. Coverage can be measured at component testing level, integration-testing level or at system- or acceptance-testing levels. [Read more…] about What are the types of coverage?
Test design techniques
How we can measure the coverage?
Coverage measurement of code is best done by using tools and there are a number of such tools on the market. These tools can help in:
- Increasing the quality and productivity of testing.
- Increasing quality by ensuring that more structural aspects are tested, so defects on those structural paths can be found.
- Increasing productivity and efficiency by highlighting tests that may be redundant, i.e. testing the same structure with different data (as there is possibility of finding the defects by testing the same structure with different data).
Why to measure code coverage?
- To know whether we have enough testing in place
- To maintain the test quality over the life cycle of a project
- To know how well our tests actually test our code
Where to apply this test coverage in software testing?
The answer of the question is that test coverage can be used in any level of the testing. Test coverage can be measured based on a number of different structural elements in a system or component. [Read more…] about Where to apply this test coverage in software testing?
What is test coverage in software testing? It’s advantages and disadvantages
Test coverage measures the amount of testing performed by a set of test. Wherever we can count things and can tell whether or not each of those things has been tested by some test, then we can measure coverage and is known as test coverage.
