IMPACT OF SOFTWARE TESTING METRICS ON SOFTWARE MEASUREMENT

Suppose, we have developed software. Now we have to check its quality and functionality. Where does this newly developed software stands among previously released software of similar functionality? Is it better or worse? How can we further improve its quality and performance?How do we find out answer to all above questions? This is the point where we make use of metrics. Software metrics measures a software providing information about quality, completeness, performance to the developer. This information can further help the organization/developer to further improve their software in many aspects.In this paper, testing metrics are being studied in the different views. The testing metrics can be classified w.r.t. the process, project and product testing metric and in the other way manual, automation, common and performance testing metrics. To see what classification includes many types of testing metrics, we can combined different types and see to its effects.
