  • Abstract
    A new control flow graph construction is described. This control flow representation is rigorous and can be fully automated. It works for any procedural language and can be used on unstructured programs. It is designed to compute number of paths, to identify breaches of structure and to define test coverage. All existing control flow metrics can be computed from this representation and new metrics could be developed from it
