Simulator to Calculate Test Efforts by Using Reusability of Code
Main Article Content
Abstract
In computer science reusability is segment of source code that can be used again to add new functionalities with slight or no modification in a software. Software Testing is the process of executing a program or system with the intent of finding error. So,Software testing is any activity aimed at evaluating an attribute or capability of a program or system and determining that it meets its required results vIn This paper we use the concept of estimation of software testing efforts based on test case point analysis [TPA] as a fundamental project estimation measure. We also discuss The concept of function point analysis[FPA]technique.In this paper, simulator will calculate the testing efforts with and without reusability. To achieve all these goal ,we implement the simulator in high level language. Our results show that the software testing efforts becomes less in case of using TPA technique with reusability as compared to TPA technique without reusing the software.
