The importance of setting realistic expectations when testing software is described. Topics include the tenuous connection between quality and testing, unsatisfactory program executions, and the definition of the informal term "bug." Also discussed are the precise estimates given by mathematical reliability models, failed tests that demonstrate nonquality, and the use of program testing to try to make the program fail. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 2008 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
