Method of determining the route to be tested in a load module test

A method of determining a route to be tested in the testing of a load module which includes a multiplicity of routes (route patterns) from the start to the end of the program, each route pattern being composed of a multiplicity of route paths. The method comprises the steps of: (1) testing an untest...

Summary:A method of determining a route to be tested in the testing of a load module which includes a multiplicity of routes (route patterns) from the start to the end of the program, each route pattern being composed of a multiplicity of route paths. The method comprises the steps of: (1) testing an untested route pattern and managing the current state of the testing of all the route patterns with the untested route pattern changed to a tested route pattern; (2) managing the current state of the testing of all the route paths with the route paths constituting the untested route pattern changed to tested route paths; and (3) determining an untested route pattern which is constituted by the largest number of untested route paths to be the route pattern to be tested next. These steps are repeated until there exists no untested route path in the load module test.
