    Abstract: The software modularity makes immense importance in the process of software development life cycle as all the software’s are developed by COTS (Commercial Off The Shelf) components which are mainly concerned with size and complexity. This introduces challenges to existing test suite reduction techniques and makes it unsuitable for readymade software and for large complex software’s. In this study we propose(recommend) a method using sliding window in function calls to achieve better test suite reduction, without accessing the source code and also to reduce the cost of integration testing by taking size, cost and time as motivating factors. Our proposed method provides good result with earliest reduction techniques in literature.
