摘要

人们普遍认为，软件质量以可靠性或“可信度”的形式，可以通过“覆盖”软件的测试的成功完成来证明。然而，这种直觉几乎没有实验或理论支持。这篇论文探讨了为什么直觉如此强大却又具有误导性。提出了软件“可靠性”的正式定义，以及测量这种可信度类比的新方法。

Connecting test coverage to software dependability

It is widely felt that software quality in the form of reliability or "trustworthiness", can be demonstrated by the successful completion of testing that "covers" the software. However, this intuition has little experimental or theoretical support. The paper considers why the intuition is so powerful and yet misleading. Formal definitions of software "dependability" are suggested, along with new approaches for measuring this analogy of trustworthiness.<>
