The wireless sensor network comprises of the number of wireless sensor nodes, that senses the environment for information collection and forwarding collected information to the base station. It is done by multi or single-hop communications for getting some achievement in the environment. Because of multi-functional applications, sensor modules became erroneous by different outer and inward sources that prompt to failure of the network. In wireless sensor network automated fault tolerance and

To study the software failure in this type of the network, we analyze the consistency of mitigation processes for fault or diagnostic methods. The diagnosis of the fault approach is proposed for faulty software in the wireless sensor network, the methodology consists of a few different stages like as initializations, detection of software faults, classification of faults and fault phases. We have used the Mann-Whitney U statistical tests for the software fault (Intermittent, Transient and permanent) detection. For assessment of the proposed diagnosis methodology the parameters like false positive rate, fault classification rate, fault probability, false alarm rate, and fault detection of the accuracy are considered.
