Abstract: Upgrading testing is one of the most important software testing fields. Upgrading path optimization approach is presented based on the analysis of the explosive growth of the number of upgrading path and the increasing cost of testing, and an upgrading testing model is presented accordingly. The testing model is effective in theory and in practice. Some inspirations are given for the design of software upgrading program.

Key words: upgrading testing, upgrading path, optimization, testing model, automatic testing
