Abstract

Daniels and Tudor consider evaluating software statistically through modelling execution as a Bernoulli Process (Daniels and Tudor 2022). They give examples and adduce considerations which they claim show that such modelling is “flawed”. However, neither the examples they give nor the considerations they adduce follow the constraints necessary for modelling any process as a Bernoulli Process. I show that here.
