Abstract

Since all the defects cannot be detected within a finite software testing process (STP), the failure data should be wisely used to estimate the potential defects for software reliability. Therefore, a standard graphical methodology (GM) model is proposed for software reliability, in which failure data of time domain is utilized to predict the potential defects. First, non homogeneous and compound Poisson process is involved to model the failure time during STP. Then, GM model is utilized to predict the potential defects. Further, the software reliability is estimated based on GM model. Finally, compared with the traditional models, GM model can reach an improvement of 30% relative gain on average.
