An approach to obtaining an estimate of operational reliability. In principal, if all sets of input data values upon which the computer program must operate are identified, an estimate of the reliability of the program could be obtained by running the program for all such possible sets. In practice a methodology is used to select sample data sets from the total of such sets which are representative of intended operational usage and the program is run for those sets only. The results of the runs on the sample data sets are used to compute reliability estimates for the program in its intended operational environment.
