Cyclomatic Complexity (CC) is a measure of the program’s complexity achieved by measuring the number of linearly independent paths through a program’s source code. This measure needs to be applied to sections of source like methods of each class. Presence of IF-ELSE statements or SWITCH statements and FOR loops increases the number of paths in a method. The number of linearly independent paths also means the minimum number of paths that should be tested. The more paths, the higher the number of test cases that need to be implemented. McCabe’s method is used to calculate CC.
