| Abstract(in English) | Considerable development resources are consumed during the software-testing phase,fundamentally consisting of module testing, integration testing,and system testing.It is very important for a manager to decide how to spend testing-resources on software- testing for developing a quality and reliable software. In this paper,using an optimal software release problem which decides when to economically stop testing,we consider testing- resource allocation policies to best use specified testing- resources during module testing.We introduce a software reliability growth model based on a nonhomogeneous Poisson process. The model describes the time-dependent behavior of software faults detected and testing-resource expenditures spent during the testing.The optimal testing-resource allocation policies can improve reliability and shorten the testing stage.We also provide numerical examples of thes optimal policies. |
