Model Testing : Is It Only a Special Case of Software Testing ?

چکیده
Effective testing of software is an important concern in the software engineering community. While many techniques regularly used for testing software apply equally well to testing the implementations of simulation models, we believe that testing simulations often raises issues that occur infrequently in other types of software. We believe that many code characteristics that commonly occur in simu lation code are precisely those that the software testing community has identified as making testing challenging. We discuss many of the techniques that software engineering community has developed to deal with those features and evaluate their applicability to simulation development.

An automatic test case generator for evaluating implementation of access control policies
One of the main requirements for providing software security is the enforcement of access control policies which aim to protect resources of the system against unauthorized accesses. Any error in the implementation of such policies may lead to undesirable outcomes. For testing the implementation of access control policies, it is preferred to use automated methods which are faster and more relia...
