  • Reliability testing of software modules
    Patent number: 7389216
    Abstract: A system and method for testing the reliability of a target module is presented. A reliability testing module executes a testing script by directing the target module to perform various functions, and by further consuming system resources by executing test applications. The behaviors of the target module are recorded and evaluated, and a reliability score is generated for the target module. The reliability score enables a user to compare the reliability of a first target module to that of a second.
