Applying Acceptance Test Driven Development (ATDD) in the context of web applications is a difficult task due to the intricateness of existing tools/frameworks and, more in general, of the proposed approaches. In this work, we present a simple approach for developing web applications in ATDD mode, based on the usage of Screen Mockups and Selenium IDE. Digital Object Identifier (DOI): http://dx....

This descriptive case study is about the dynamics of a software engineering team using executable acceptance test-driven development in a real world project. The experiences of a customer, a developer, and a tester were discussed. The observed consensus among multiple stakeholders speaks of the effectiveness of the practice in the given context.

Accuracy improvement is among the primary key research focuses in the area of recommender systems. Traditionally, recommender systems work on two sets of entities, Users and Items, to estimate a single rating that represents a user’s acceptance of an item.

Today, nearly every Software Engineering or Computer Science Degree Course given in either a British University, or in any University around the world, includes the teaching of Formal Methods. In contrast, there are comparatively few industrial or commercial projects in which Formal Methods are used. This paper outlines some of the bene ts of including formal methods as part of the degree curri...

Biometrics is a diverse and increasingly important field, covering many modalities and types of individual characteristics. The biometric modality with perhaps the longest history, and one which certainly enjoys the widest degree of public acceptance, is the handwritten signature [1]. However, checking and analysing handwritten signatures as a means of establishing or verifying identity is both...
