Abstract

Software testing is one of the most important phase in development life cycle of any software system as testing assures the quality of the software i. e. a software is bug-free can judged using software testing. Although, creating bug-free software is impossible but we can find out most of the bugs and recover them. Software testing can be done in many ways but here we will focus on structural testing. This paper presents an approach which can prioritize the paths among a set of paths such that they can be executed accordingly and comparison between existing methods is done. All results have been produced using a software developed for the purpose.
