Application of difficulty metrics in the process of testing software systems

Galimova Ekaterina Yuryevna, Belov Sergey Valerevich

The article discusses the main metrics for assessing the qualitative characteristics of a software system, describes the mechanism for forming a metric basis of complexity. The authors have developed an approach to modeling the process of software development and testing using affine subspaces and a metric basis. The dimension of the intersection of affine subspaces acts as the resulting evaluation criterion.

Keywords:complexity metrics, quality of software systems, software testing, affine shell, affine subspace.
