摘要：Testability is an important software quality factor that is ineffective if it is not available at an early stage inthe development life-cycle. It becomes more essential in the case of object oriented design. Flexibility is animportant key factor to testability analysis and measurement for delivering high class testable andmaintainable software. Flexibility is a criterion of crucial significance to software developers, designersand the quality controllers. It constantly guides and supports to avoid wastage of resources as well asenable the designers for continuous improvement in the development process. Flexibility is concerned withbuilding high quality and reliable software within the constraints of cost and time. It greatly influencescost, quality and reliability at software evolution process. Despite the fact flexibility is vital and highlysignificant aspect for software development processes, it is poorly managed. This paper focuses the needand importance of flexibility early at design phase. A model has been proposed for flexibility measurementof object oriented design by establishing multiple linear regression. Finally the proposed model has beenvalidated using experimental tryout.
