A Generic Framework for Software Testing Techniques

Software testing is an important role in the software development life cycle. There are various types of software testing techniques to ensure the quality of the product. So it is very much essential to find the right testing technique at right time. The proper usage of efficient testing technique at any stage of SDLC is very crucial. Selection of right testing technique at any stage is one of the crucial problems. Comprising of testing technique is a multi-criteria decision making problem and propose an efficient solution. In this paper, a review is made on several past empirical studies along with their result, conducted with subjects to examine both functional and structural testing techniques. Finally, the overall performance of various testing techniques has been observed with respect to effectiveness and efficiency in existing experiments.
