841fall06 exam1 question 2a
2. (30 pts) Modeling Assume that boundary testing randomly picks 2 test cases from each subset that makes the two sides in a relational expression equal (e.g. if the decision was “x < y”, the set would be those points where the value of x was equal to the value of y.} Boundary testing for the whole program will do this for each relational expression.Use Frankl’s formulas to estimate the E(Q) for this approach.
841f06 exam1 question 2b
cin >> a >> b;out = “X”;if (a > b + 1) out = “Y”;if (a < 2*b ) out = “Z”;cout<< out;Seed two faults:Change “b+1” to “b+2”Change “2*b” to “b”
Consider the following program. Assume the operation profile is uniform and consists of all pairs of integers between 1 and 5. E.g. (1,1) , (1,2), etc
841f06 exam1 question 33. (30 pts) AnalysisConsider the following code. Find the largest set of mutually exclusive subdomains that might be useful for thorough testing of the code. Justify why they would be useful. Express the sets with relational conditions on a and b and draw a 2D map of the subdomains. Consider these three faults: 1) change “b+3” to “b+2” ; 2) change “a<b” to “a>b” ; 3) change “a+2” to “a+3” Can these subdomains reveal these faults?
cin >> a >> b;out = “X”;if (a > b + 3) out = “Y”;a = a + 2;if (a < b ) out = “Z”;cout<< out;
841f06 exam1 question 44. (15 pts) DiscussionSuppose that your testing effort is restricted to n tests and you have identified 2*n important subdomains in the product. How do you decide which subdomains to test? Can you use seeded faults to help select? What faults would you seed?

Triangle Example
cin >> a >> b >> c ;type = “scalene”;if (a == b || a == c || b == c) type= “isosceles”;if (a == b && a == c) type = “equilateral”;if (a >= b+c || b >= a+c || c >= a+b) type=“not a triangle”;if (a <= 0 || b <= 0 || c <= 0) type=“bad input”;cout<< type;

For Tuesday, Oct 2
Failure sets for triangle and faults 1-4
841f07frankl12oct2 13
Empirical Tool
For Tues, Oct 9 Use your empirical tool to calculate
E(theta) for subdomain testing of the triangle problem with the given faults shown in lecture 11 and 12.
Compare with Frankl’s formulas. Make the comparision as fair as possible. Choose the number of tests and subdomains carefully
