Design of a Tool for Checking Integration Testing Coverage of Object-Oriented Software

Software testing is a necessary process in software development life cycle to verify if the developed software follows its specification. One important thing of the testing process is test coverage analysis because defects may exist in uncovered parts and emerge when users try to use them. Test coverage analysis is performed to measure the comprehensiveness or thoroughness of testing. It is necessary and can be applied at every level of testing process. Nowadays, the object-oriented software is gaining interest in software industry which the test method differs from the conventional software, so some of available techniques and tools cannot be applied to object- oriented software. This paper proposes design of a tool for checking integration testing coverage of object- oriented software which can check the integration testing coverage of object oriented software and generate additional test cases in case of the existing test cases cannot cover the code.
