Verification of control coupling and data coupling analysis in software code

A system for verifying control coupling analysis in testing of software code, the system comprising:

• one or more processors, one or more computer-readable memories, one or more computer-readable tangible storage devices, and instructions stored on at least one of the one or more storage devices for execution by at least one of the one or more processors via at least one of the one or more memories, the instructions comprising:
• selecting a source file to be tested, the source file having source code;
• identifying one or more control couples within the source file by performing static analysis on the source code of the source file;
• defining one or more test runs of the software code, the one or more test runs including one or more of the identified control couples, and the one or more test runs using dynamic analysis;
• executing the one or more defined test runs;
• identifying control coupling coverage of the source file based on the dynamic analysis;
• and
• generating a control coupling report based on the identified control coupling coverage of the source file.
