摘要：In this paper an attempt is made to implement system test cases and software metrics with aid of GUI and several applications were developed to calculate the metrics and performance of the each test case, which can also be used as a stand alone method. Further an emphasis is made on different relationships with system test case and software metrics, which will helps to determine quality and quantity of software attributes measured with regard of Object- Oriented Software Development Life Cycle. We demonstrate a suggestive evaluation of system test cases in OO Systems. Developing effective suites of unit test cases presents a number of challenges. Specifications of unit behavior are usually informal and are often incomplete or ambiguous, leading to the development of overly general or incorrect unit tests. Furthermore, such specifications may evolve independently of implementations requiring additional maintenance of unit tests even if implementations remain unchanged. Testers may find it difficult to imagine sets of unit input values that exercise the full range of unit behavior and thereby fail to exercise the different ways in which the unit will be used as a part of a system. Unit test cases are focused and efficient. System tests are effective at exercising complex usage patterns. Differential unit tests (DUTs) are a hybrid of unit and system tests that exploits their strengths. They are generated by carving the system components, while executing a system test case that influence the behavior of the target unit and then reassembling those components so that the unit can be exercised as it was by the system test. Here, we show that DUTs retain some of the advantages of unit tests, can be automatically generated, and have the potential for revealing faults related to intricate system executions. We describes a framework for carving and replaying DUTs that accounts for a wide variety of strategies and trade-offs, we implement an automated instance of the framework with several techniques to mitigate test cost enhance flexibility and robustness. The goal of this paper is to empirically explore the relationship between OOD Metrics with Test Cases .We empirically analyzed and tested with Open Source Java projects[11,12,13]
