Software Fault Injection Testing (SFIT) framework / Syahmi Iskandar Mohd Isa

Recent studies had shown that software defect can occur from many factors not only from the programming base but also induce by external factors such as improper interaction with the system. One of the testing techniques that have been proposed to encounter this type of software defect is using Soft...
