In this study, reliability software cost model considering shape parameter based on life distribution from the process of software product testing was studied. The shape parameter using the Erlang and Log-logistic model that is widely used in the field of reliability problems presented. The software failure model was used finite failure non-homogeneous Poisson process model, the parameters estimation using maximum likelihood estimation was conducted. In comparison result of software cost model based on the Erlang distribution and the log-logistic distribution software cost model, because Erlang model is to predict the optimal release time can be software, but the log-logistic model to predict to optimal release time can not be, Erlang distribution than the log-logistic distribution appears to be effective. In this research, software developers to identify software development cost some extent be able to help is considered.
