  • Abstract
    We study the link validity of a Web site´s navigational structure to enhance Web quality. Our approach employs the principle of statistical usage testing to develop an efficient and effective testing mechanism. Some advantages of our approach include generating test scripts systematically, providing coverage metrics, and executing hyperlinks only once.
