“…Whatever strategy is adopted to assign weights to program entities, this is anyhow based on the count spectra and as such cannot consider the potential impact of failures, as is done in so-called risk-based testing (Erdogan et al 2014;Felderer and Ramler 2014). In riskbased testing, test selection or prioritization is driven by the potential risk of failures, which is given by both their probability of occurrence (as in operational testing) and their impact.…”

While the relation between code coverage measures and fault detection is actively studied, only few works have investigated the correlation between measures of coverage and of reliability. In this work, we introduce a novel approach to measuring code coverage, called the operational coverage, that takes into account how much the program's entities are exercised so to reflect the profile of usage into the measure of coverage. Operational coverage is proposed as (i) an adequacy criterion, i.e., to assess the thoroughness of a black box test suite derived from the operational profile, and as (ii) a selection criterion, i.e., to select test cases for operational profile-based testing. Our empirical evaluation showed that operational coverage is better correlated than traditional coverage with the probability that the next test case derived according to the user's profile will not fail. This result suggests that our approach could provide a good stopping rule for operational profile-based testing. With respect to test case selection, our investigations revealed that operational coverage outperformed the traditional one in terms of test suite size and fault detection capability when we look at the average results.

Evolution of software is cumbersome process and also needs many iterations of software testing for satisfying some quality criteria. Software quality assurance activities must be effectively used for the proper software quality management and to achieve good product quality .Effective quality management is related to Value Engineering and Risk Management. In the present paper we will study relevance of quality assurance tools, strategies and models while doing risk based testing for the proper product function orientation .By analysing risks we can get to know how much we need to do the testing of software and further can assure the software quality.

The present research effort analyses various application areas of risk oriented testing and indentifies the gaps from the past .We need risk oriented testing not only for identifying risks in the projects but also for the maximum optimization of resources .Our research stresses on risk oriented testing in pervasive and evolutionary computational areas as due to dynamicity of such computing environment ,the project imbibes risk in great measure and needs to be taken care in early stages of the project . Risk oriented testing requires concentration in both of these application areas as extremely little work has been done in this regard.
