Many programmers view testing as a demonstration that their programs perform properly. However, the idea of demonstrating correctness is really the reverse of what testing is all about. We test a program in order to demonstrate the existence of an error. Because our goal is to discover errors, we can consider a test successful only when an error is discovered. 宾语从句 *?1 ?1 ● What is the purpose of software test ? Once an error is found, “debugging” or error correction is the process of determining what causes the error and of making changes to the system so that the error no longer exists. 2. Stages of Testing In the development of a large system, testing involves several stages. First, each program module is tested as a single program, usually isolated from the other programs in the system. 宾语从句 *?2 同位语 Such testing, known as module testing or unit-testing, verifies that the module functions properly with the types of input expected from studying the module design. Unit testing is done in a controlled environment whenever possible so that the test team can feed a predetermined set of data to the module being tested and observe what output data are produced［1］. In addition, the test team checks the internal data structures, the logic, and the boundary conditions for the input and output data. ?2 ● How to test a program unit ? 结果状语从句 宾语从句 宾语从句 *?3 时间状语从句 ?3 ● Is the integration test to test the interfaces among the software modules ?
