چکیده

This paper presents a novel approach of generating test cases from UML design diagrams. Our approach consists of transforming a UML sequence diagram into a graph called the sequence diagram graph (SDG) and augmenting the SDG nodes with different information necessary to compose test vectors. These information are mined from use case templates, class diagrams and data dictionary. The SDG is then traversed to generate test cases. The test cases thus generated are suitable for system testing and to detect interaction and scenario faults.

Testing UML Designs using Class, Sequence and Activity Diagrams

Testing is performed by different types of strategies. Generally testing is performed on code, but if the software can be tested in the earlier phases then most of the errors can be eliminated and can be stopped from propagating to next phase. The proposed work presents a novel design based testing approach that can fix errors in initial phase. To perform design based testing, we need a languag...

A Novel Test Case Design Technique Using Dynamic Slicing of UML Sequence Diagrams

We present a novel methodology for test case generation based on UML sequence diagrams. We create message dependence graphs (MDG) from UML sequence diagrams. Edge marking dynamic slicing method is applied on MDG to create slices. Based on the slice created with respect to each predicate on the sequence diagram, we generate test data. We formulate a test adequacy criterion named slice coverage c...

Test Case Generation from Behavioral UML Models

We propose an integrated approach to generate test cases from UML sequence and activity diagrams. We first transform these UML diagrams into a graph. Then, we propose an algorithm to generate test scenarios from the constructed graph. Next, the necessary information for test case generation, such as method-activity sequence, associated objects, and constraint conditions are extracted from test ...
