摘要：The evaluation of Graphical User Interface has significant role to improve its quality. Very few metrics exists for the evaluation of Graphical User Interface. The purpose of metrics is to obtain better measurements in terms of risk management, reliability forecast, project scheduling, and cost repression. In this paper structural complexity metrics is proposed for the evaluation of Graphical User Interface. Structural complexity of Graphical User Interface is considered as an indicator of complexity. The goal of identifying structural complexity is to measure the GUI testability. In this testability evaluation the process of measuring the complexity of the user interface from testing perspective is proposed. For the GUI evaluation and calculating structural complexity an assessment process is designed which is based on types of events. A fuzzy model is developed to evaluate the structural complexity of GUI. This model takes five types of events as input and return structural complexity of GUI as output. Further a relationship is established between structural complexity and testability of event driven software. Proposed model is evaluated with four different applications. It is evident from the results that higher the complexities lower the testability of application.
