Abstract

Component-Based Software Engineering (CBSE) is increasingly being accepted worldwide for software development, in most of the industries. Software reliability is defined as the probability that a software system operates with no failure within a specified time on specified operating conditions. Software component reliability and failure intensity are two important parameters that Estimates the reliability of system after integration of component. The estimation of reliability of software can save loss of time, life and cost. In this paper, software reliability has been estimated by analyzing the failure data. The Imperfect Software Reliability Growth Models (SRGMs) model have been used for simulating the software reliability by estimating the number of remaining faults and the model parameters of the fault content rate function. We aim for simulating software reliability by connecting the imperfect debugging and Goel-Okumoto model. The estimation of reliability gives the time of stopping the unending testing of that component or time of release of software component.
