Title
Multi-Dimensional Measures for Test Case Quality
Abstract
Choosing the right test cases is an important task in software development due to high costs of software testing as well as the significance of software failures. Therefore, evaluating the quality of test techniques and test suites may help improving test results. Benchmarking has been successfully applied to various domains such as database performance. However, the difficulty in benchmarking test case quality is to find suitable measures. In this paper, a multi- dimensional measuring of test case quality is proposed. It has been shown that not only the number of detected faults but also other aspects such as development artefacts like source code or usage profiles are important. Consequences of this multi-dimensional measure on creating a test bench- mark are described.
