System for determining the code coverage of a tested program based upon static and dynamic analysis recordings

摘要

System for analyzing programs by measuring the degree of code coverage of a program being tested during specific test phases. A correlation and comparison of results obtained from both a static and dynamic analysis recording is made. The introduction of a static and dynamic instruction flow indicator permits a determination of the test cover results by correlating the data of the static and dynamic instruction flow indicators. Thus, the number of untested functions can be determined during a test phase of a computer program before sending the data processing system to the field.
