What is Software reliability?..

Answer / janet

It is the probability that software will work without
failure for a specified period of time in a specified
environment.
Reliability of software is measured in terms of Mean Time
Between Failure (MTBF).
For eg if MTBF = 10000 hours for an average software, then
it should not fail for 10000 hours of continous operation.

What is Software reliability?..

Answer / alex yin

MTBF is applicable for the randam failure caused by

systematic failure one. So, the time domain MTBF is not
applicable to software reliability.
