The objective of testing is
Debugging To uncover errors
To gain modularity To analyze system
10) In the system concepts, the term integration
Implies structure and order
Refers to the holism system
Refers to the manner in which each component functions with other
components of the system
means that parts of computer system depends on one another
State whether following statements are True or False: 04
Coupling is a measure of interconnection among modules in a program
structure.
Reliability of software is dependent on number of errors present in
software.
Code optimization is responsibility of application programmer.
The main objective f designing various modules of a software is to increase
the cohesion and to decrease the coupling.
