The previous diagnostic strategy considering life cycle cost is generated based on the assumption that the test placement costs are independent with each other. In this paper, the problem based on non-independent test cost is studied. A general algorithm is proposed to solve this problem. For the special scenario that the value of a placement function is binary, an algorithm with better computational efficiency is proposed. Computational experiment shows that our algorithms are capable of producing better results compared with the previous algorithms.
