Abstract:

With the rapid development of the information age, computer software develops toward systematization and complication. In application areas such as commerce, finance and medical treatment,the performance of software is attracting more and more attention which even becomes one of the important factors to determine whether users are willing to use a piece of software. Currently, static checking tools are mostly designed to check the code errors but pay little attention to the performance problems. In order to detect the defects in source code that may cause performance problems, this paper designs and achieves a performance testing tool based on static analysis method. The experiments of detecting several open source projects using our testing tool demonstrate that it can quickly find the defects in source code with high accuracy rate. The result of defection removing shows that it can significantly reduce the memory consumption of software, and it can effectively improve software performance.
