Abstract

Failure-modes-based software reading uses failure modes to guide readers what to look for, root causes as cues where to look, and mitigations as prompts to check whether any features are missing or inadequate. The idea is codified as reading techniques that prescribe steps to conduct reading and detect defects. The family of reading techniques is risk-driven and intended to surface critical defects. It is advised that the reading techniques shall be used complementarily to other reading techniques.
