The Dynamic Function Calling Path Generation Based on Instrumentation

Abstract:

Path coverage testing is almost impossible to achieve because of the large number of paths. The function calling path coverage analysis method can guaranty adequate test coverage rate effectively on the precondition of unit testing completion. Based on function calling relations, the methods of dynamic generation function calling path is proposed. For cycle and recursive calling, design instrumentation rules and probe function, complete source code instrumentation, ensure the stub point flow can trace to the function calling relations. The function calling path generation algorithms were designed to split the stub point flow to the dynamic function calling path. Experimental results show that the dynamic function calling path generation method based instrumentation can extract the function calling paths which are executed by test cases and gain the coverage of information automatically.
