The Software testing phase of the development life cycle model of software plays a very important role in deciding the quality and functionality of the software. The Testing of the software is done to detect the fault in its functionality and on the basis of its performance further quality of software is improved. In the software testing phase there is a task involved which is prioritization of...

Requirements prioritization method is an essential activity in software development to identify most important functionalities of the project within limited resources. This work evaluates various requirements prioritization methods with respect to a number of parameters viz. size of the project, feasibility measure, conflicts resolution, complexity analysis and keeps the developer focused on mo...

Organizations generally have a variety of IT projects to implement, but only limited resources to develop them. As information technology and systems pervade organizations, the pool of potential IT projects is continually increasing. In this paper, we explore IT project prioritization practices in a real life context and contrast them with the rational approaches which dominate the IS literatur...

This chapter provides an overview of techniques for prioritization of requirements for software products. Prioritization is a crucial step towards making good decisions regarding product planning for single and multiple releases. Various aspects of functionality are considered, such as importance, risk, cost, etc. Prioritization decisions are made by stakeholders, including users, managers, dev...

Though many general practitioners (GPs) now take part in audit, there is still concern about the extent to which participation in audit leads to improvements in practice. Improved methods are needed for the incorporation of research evidence into criteria for use in audit. In this paper, a six-stage systematic method is described for developing audit protocols containing prioritized evidence-ba...

This Software testing is “Performing Verification and Validation of the Software Product” for its correctness and accuracy of working. Every time it is not possible to perform each and every test case. Hence it is important to decide test cases prioritization. The aim of Test case prioritization is to prioritize the test case sequences and finding the faults as early as possible to improve prof...

Test Case Prioritization (TCP) is setting priority to each and every test case from test case suit and executes those test cases in descending order. The proposed generic tool will first generate test cases from UML diagram sequence diagram and prioritize them on basis of following criteria's: prioritization on depending upon depth, prioritization on dependency of number of parameters, pri...

1 2 During regression testing, a modified system is often retested using an existing test suite. Since the size of the test suite 3 may be very large, testers are interested in detecting faults in the modified system as early as possible during this retesting 4 process. Test prioritization attempts to order tests for execution so that the chances of early detection of faults during retest5 ing ...

Abstract— The most appropriate prioritization method is still one of the unsettled issues of the Analytic Hierarchy Process, although many studies have been made and applied. Interestingly, many transportation evaluation and selection models using AHP apply only Saaty’s Eigenvector method. Many theoretical studies have found that this method may produce rank reversals and have proposed various ...

Regression testing is a time consuming, costly process of re-running existing test cases. As software evolves, the regression test suite grows in size. Test case prioritization techniques help by ordering test cases such that at least the test cases which cover the changes made in the software are executed amidst resource and time constraints. Genetic Algorithm (GA) has been widely used for tes...
