Exploratory Testing of Software Product Linesusing Distance Metrics

Quality is very important in any software product, so that the customer trusts the efficiency of the product. The quality or validity of a product is measured by its testing. The test measures the quality of a product as well as shows the validity of the product. For example, testing and measuring the validity of a product in a single software system is not easy. Similarly, the software product line, which produces many different products of the same family at once, makes it even more difficult to check their validity and quality. Several techniques and models have been proposed to test the validity of the software line products and to ascertain the quality. In the same direction, we also propose a method for testing the products of software product line. The proposed method isbased on the distance between the features of the product (Desired and Original). We have used the proposed technique on product line with less features and found that the method presented gives fast and better results than traditional methods.
