  15. Usually the effectiveness of a test process is measured as the fraction of the total number of faults that are uncovered by testing. This value is estimated by embedding faults in the code to be tested and examining the results of the testing process. Because we use the target application in a black-box fashion, that is, without modifying the code, we had to create an alternative metric.
