This final and concluding statement addresses the role error in determining the different “regimes of truth” in the history of philosophy, proposing that much of contemporary philosophy is reacting to the same species of error identified with a previous tradition of post-Cartesianism and a Kantian subject of Critique.

As mentioned in Chapter I, a service’s dependability must be justified in a quantitative way and proved through extensive on-field testing and fault injection, verification and validation techniques, simulation, source-code instrumentation, monitoring, and debugging. An exhaustive treatment of all these techniques falls outside the scope of this book, nevertheless the author feels important to include in this text an analysis of the effect on dependability of some of the methods that have been introduced in previous chapters.

Coverage Testing

Path coverage testing is almost impossible to achieve because of the large number of paths. The function calling path coverage analysis method can guaranty adequate test coverage rate effectively on the precondition of unit testing completion. Based on function calling relations, the methods of dynamic generation function calling path is proposed. For cycle and recursive calling, design instrumentation rules and probe function, complete source code instrumentation, ensure the stub point flow can trace to the function calling relations. The function calling path generation algorithms were designed to split the stub point flow to the dynamic function calling path. Experimental results show that the dynamic function calling path generation method based instrumentation can extract the function calling paths which are executed by test cases and gain the coverage of information automatically.
