Testing resource allocation for fault detection process

Abstract

Developing quality software is one of the most challenging tasks, for developing quality software we have to remove the entire bug from software before the software switch into operational phase. For this we have to allocate our testing and debugging resource based on the time so that we can finish off our work. For distributing the testing and debugging resource we are using software reliability growth model (SRGMs). Numerous SRGMs has been developed in past couple of decade for allocating the testing and debugging resource but mostly under static condition. In this article we developed a mathematical model for allocating the resource in dynamic environment. In this article we utilized Pontryagin maximum principle for illuminating the model. Finally one numerical illustration is explained for distributing the software testing resource for created module. Here Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used for allocating resource optimally.
