  • Abstract
    Common measures of test efficiency are the fault coverage and the defect level for a given product yield. An extension of the well known formula relating these three quantities to the case of general non-equiprobable faults has been derived by exploiting the concept of critical area. This also leads to a more meaningful definition of fault coverage.
