Fault seeding is a method used to evaluate the effectiveness of a testing process. Tools designed for fault seeding intentionally insert known defects into the source code, which are then supposed to be discovered during testing. The main purpose is not to check the input checking capabilities, support specification-based test design techniques, or assess maintainability of the software, but rather to gauge how well the testing process can identify and capture defects. By comparing the number of seeded faults that are found against the total number of faults inserted, test teams can get an insight into the effectiveness of their testing strategies and coverage. This method helps in understanding the detection capabilities of testing efforts and in identifying potential areas for improvement in test processes.

For an online dating service experiencing heavy usage, particularly important in the architecture review checklist is to verify the process isolation between OLTP (Online Transaction Processing) and OLAP (Online Analytical Processing).

Review tools, static analysis tools, and dynamic analysis tools do not primarily focus on hyperlink verification.
