Reliability analysis of test cases for program slicing

The concept used in the research paper includes program slicing which is referred as the process of computing the chosen set of instructions of the program. The slicing criterion refers to the slice that is likely to affect the values at some point while executing the program. The paper highlights the different test cases and comparative analysis of program slicing methods which corresponds to the applications which are usually utilized in software modification activities i.e. Debugging process, testing analysis and its phases, calculating complexity and program understanding etc. In the approach used in the paper the “slicing” method of the program focus on precise & defined sub-components of a program; which can further be used to produce the instructions needed for the program, relevant to an explicit method of computation. Applying slicing techniques to software's using slicing tools, we can determine which components can be facilitated and reused. The process of designing phase of and the reused patterns are likely to suggest improvement in the respective code.
