Professor Michael A. Hennell (born 09 Sep 1940) is a British computer scientist who has made leading contributions in the field of in software testing.[1][2]
Michael Hennell is Professor Emeritus of Mathematical Sciences, University of Liverpool in England.
As part of his leading role in software testing, Hennell is a member of the editoral board of the journal Software Testing, Verification and Reliability (STVR), a major international journal in the field of software testing.[3]
Hennell's academic research was initially conducted in Nuclear physics, resulting in the use of Computational science for addressing complex nuclear mathematics [4]. Assessing the quality of the mathematical libraries on which this work depended lead Professor Hennell into the world of Software testing [5][6][7], specifically in the use of Static code analysis for quantifying the effectiveness of test data [8], which lead to the development of the Linear Code Sequence and Jump concept.
In 1975 Professor Hennell founded Liverpool Data Research Associates Ltd. (LDRA) to commercialize the software test-bed designed to analyse numerical software.
