  • Method and apparatus for the performing unit testing of software modules in software systems
    Patent number: 8799868
    Abstract: In a method and apparatus of performing unit testing of a software module, the method provides for reading, by a computer, target data and discovering of functional aspects of a piece of software code, dividing the target data into chunks, estimating a plurality of decision/condition statements of the software code, estimating an amount of possible test cases based on the program inputs, defining a data set over the plurality of identified decisions/conditions, finding subset relationships between all the defined data sets, defining a plurality of optimal data sets, classifying the condition of the plurality of optimal data sets by category, refining the plurality of optimal data sets, and calculating the best amount of data sets.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 18, 2011
    Date of Patent: August 5, 2014
    Assignee: Siemens Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Guy Collins Ndem, Abbas Abdelhamid Abbas Tahir
  • Method for estimating testing efforts for software unit testing
    Patent number: 8495576
    Abstract: A method of estimating testing efforts for software unit testing, has at least the steps of assigning each element of a software system present in a development environment a complexity factor, calculating a complexity factor of the software system present in the development environment, and estimating an effort needed for performing testing of a unit under test in the development environment.
