| Software installation testing holds the key to improving software quality because the installation stage is the initial step that unlocks the software. It is critical that customers can install the software smoothly because this can set the tone for the customers' impression of the software's quality. The purpose of software installation testing is to validate that the software can be installed correctly on different computer configurations and conditions by testing its installation functionalities. To accomplish this task, this research proposes both a semantic tree model and a weighted semantic tree model. These two models will help engineers simulate the environment configurations, system running conditions, and installation functions. In addition, this paper will provide some test analysis to conduct software installation testing. As a final step, the two models were validated by applying them in a case study on Turbo Tax software. |
