Abstract
One of the most difficult and important software quality assurance/testing tasks is to estimate the expected number of bugs in a given software module or a project. Good estimation methods are important for evaluating the project perform once in an optimized manner and deciding which quality assurance strategies are most appropriate and effective. The core objective of this paper is to define a combined testing strategy to identify the more defects and to validate the testing among code inspection and test driven development (TDD) using open source testing tools. Based on the test rules, evaluating the functionalities and the testing will be done automatically upon user acceptance. After evaluating the test cases, the results will be populated for further development. Though both the testing seem to give effective result in maximum level of testing when conducted individually, the best output by testing can be achieved through the combination of both, TDD and code sniffer testing. Our approach plays a major role in detecting and managing fault present in the software development. Implementation of this methodology proves to be cost effective and saves analyzing time. As a result this shows the improvement in the quality of the product of the software test finally satisfying the customers.
