Abstract

Testing is process of executing a program with an intention to find out a yet undiscovered error. During software testing the aim should be to find out maximum number of error before release of software. This is possible only when each and every statement written in a program is executed at least once. The program structure is formed with control structures sequential, selection and iteration, how these statements are written defines the program structure. This paper presents use of basis path testing as a base for program structure testing; also it ensures that each and every statement will be executed at least once.
