Abstract

Testing is one of the important phase in software development. Main Purpose of testing is to identify the number of errors present in the software. In the history of software development several testing techniques and methods are used in finding out the errors. Module testing is one of the sophisticated testing technique. Software release problem is the one of oldest of problem in which managers could find a time at which testing is be to stopped such that released software should have more quality. During the testing many resources are consumed; every manager’s intension is to find efficient method of allocating resources during software module testing such that it saves time and resource. In this paper we have combined the software release problem with resource allocation with software reliability growth model with imperfect-debugging phenomenon. Experiments are conducted on datasets. The results show our proposed model fits better than other.
