Many constraints are imposed on the software industries that want to complete the project in time and within budget. It is a challenging task for software industries to complete the project with in time and budget due to advancement of technology. In this paper a hierarchical test case prioritisation (HSTCP) (Kumar, 2013) tool is presented which implements hierarchical system test case prioritization technique. The presented tool helps to prioritize the system test case and reduce the testing cost of the software. The HSTCP tool works at three levels. At the first level it prioritizes the requirements, at the seconds level the modules of highest prioritized requirements are prioritized. Finally at third level it prioritizes the test cases of the modules in prioritized order. The presented HSTCP tool is implemented in Java language.

Abstract


Many constraints are imposed on the software industries that want to complete the project in time and within budget. It is a challenging task for software industries to complete the project with in time and budget due to advancement of technology. In this paper a hierarchical test case prioritisation (HSTCP) (Kumar, 2013) tool is presented which implements hierarchical system test case prioritization technique. The presented tool helps to prioritize the system test case and reduce the testing cost of the software. The HSTCP tool works at three levels. At the first level it prioritizes the requirements, at the seconds level the modules of highest prioritized requirements are prioritized. Finally at third level it prioritizes the test cases of the modules in prioritized order. The presented HSTCP tool is implemented in Java language.
