Download or read book On Combinatorial Design based Test Generation written by Linghuan Hu and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combinatorial testing (CT) is a testing technique that focuses on testing the interactions between the various factors of a given system. CT shows great potential for detecting faults, especially those that can only be detected by the specific value combinations of multiple factors (multi-factor faults). However, CT has not been widely adopted as a standard testing technique in the industry, which raises three main research questions that need to be answered: 1) how does CT perform in the real world; 2) can CT be applied to IoT systems – one of the most complicated types of systems need to be tested in the modern era; and 3) how should CT input models1 be constructed to ensure the superior fault detection effectiveness, especially when the testing budget is limited. This dissertation presents an empirical study of CT’s real-world effectiveness and proposes two approaches2 – CT-IoT and CT-Star – to answer the questions above. In the conducted empirical study, the performance of CT in terms of fault detection effectiveness was evaluated on eleven functionalities of five industrial systems with real faults using real-world settings. We compared the faults detected by CT with those detected by the techniques used by the in-house testing teams to evaluate whether CT can outperform industrial favored techniques. The results suggest that, despite some challenges, CT is an effective technique to detect faults, especially multi-factor faults, of software systems in industrial settings. Regarding applying CT to test IoT systems, a comprehensive literature review is conducted to evaluate the state-of-the-art approaches. It is discovered that applying CT to test IoT systems is challenging because CT cannot model IoT systems for testing. Moreover, the inability to handle complex constraints of IoT systems also hinders CT’s application to IoT systems. In response, a combinatorial testing path selection framework for IoT systems called CT-IoT is proposed. CTIoT systematically identifies and recommends testing paths in IoT systems for effective testing. Four coverage criteria that can help testers evaluate the testing thoroughness for IoT systems are also proposed. CT-IoT is evaluated on two real-world IoT systems in terms of coverage achievements. The results show the superiority of CT-IoT over a random approach. Last but not least, CT can be ineffective in detecting faults. If specific fault-triggering values are not included in the input model, the faults that can only be detected by the combinations of those values will remain undetected. If a systematic approach is not used to construct effective input models, the tester may struggle with mediocre testing results against real-world systems. A CT input model construction approach, called CT-Star, is proposed to create superior input models that can detect faults systematically. CT-Star includes various testing techniques to help practitioners create superior input models. It can also automatically tune the input model to reduce the number of test cases generated, helping practitioners meet limited testing budgets.

Download or read book Construction of Test Suites written by Himer Avila-George and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2015-04-08 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A good strategy to test a software component involves the generation of the whole set of cases that participate in its operation. While testing only individual values may not be enough, exhaustive testing of all possible combinations is not always feasible. An alternative technique to accomplish this goal is called combinatorial testing. Combinatorial testing is a method that can reduce cost and increase the effectiveness of software testing for many applications. It is based on constructing functional test-suites of economical size, which provide coverage of the most prevalent configurations. Covering arrays are combinatorial objects, that have been applied to do functional tests of software components. The use of covering arrays allows to test all the interactions, of a given size, among the input parameters using the minimum number of test cases. In this book an overview of software testing is presented, the main methods to construct test-suites using combinatorial objects are listed. Finally, we propose a new strategy to construct test-suites using a Grid/Parallel approach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than ever, mission-critical and business-critical applications depend on object-oriented (OO) software. Testing techniques tailored to the unique challenges of OO technology are necessary to achieve high reliability and quality. "Testing Object-Oriented Systems: Models, Patterns, and Tools" is an authoritative guide to designing and automating test suites for OO applications. This comprehensive book explains why testing must be model-based and provides in-depth coverage of techniques to develop testable models from state machines, combinational logic, and the Unified Modeling Language (UML). It introduces the test design pattern and presents 37 patterns that explain how to design responsibility-based test suites, how to tailor integration and regression testing for OO code, how to test reusable components and frameworks, and how to develop highly effective test suites from use cases. Effective testing must be automated and must leverage object technology. The author describes how to design and code specification-based assertions to offset testability losses due to inheritance and polymorphism. Fifteen micro-patterns present oracle strategies--practical solutions for one of the hardest problems in test design. Seventeen design patterns explain how to automate your test suites with a coherent OO test harness framework. The author provides thorough coverage of testing issues such as: The bug hazards of OO programming and differences from testing procedural code How to design responsibility-based tests for classes, clusters, and subsystems using class invariants, interface data flow models, hierarchic state machines, class associations, and scenario analysis How to support reuse by effective testing of abstract classes, generic classes, components, and frameworks How to choose an integration strategy that supports iterative and incremental development How to achieve comprehensive system testing with testable use cases How to choose a regression test approach How to develop expected test results and evaluate the post-test state of an object How to automate testing with assertions, OO test drivers, stubs, and test frameworks Real-world experience, world-class best practices, and the latest research in object-oriented testing are included. Practical examples illustrate test design and test automation for Ada 95, C++, Eiffel, Java, Objective-C, and Smalltalk. The UML is used throughout, but the test design patterns apply to systems developed with any OO language or methodology. 0201809389B04062001

Download or read book Testing Complex and Embedded Systems written by Kim H. Pries and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-04-19 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many enterprises regard system-level testing as the final piece of the development effort, rather than as a tool that should be integrated throughout the development process. As a consequence, test teams often execute critical test plans just before product launch, resulting in much of the corrective work being performed in a rush and at the last minute. Presenting combinatorial approaches for improving test coverage, Testing Complex and Embedded Systems details techniques to help you streamline testing and identify problems before they occur—including turbocharged testing using Six Sigma and exploratory testing methods. Rather than present the continuum of testing for particular products or design attributes, the text focuses on boundary conditions. Examining systems and software testing, it explains how to use simulation and emulation to complement testing. Details how to manage multiple test hardware and software deliveries Examines the contradictory perspectives of testing—including ordered/ random, structured /unstructured, bench/field, and repeatable/non repeatable Covers essential planning activities prior to testing, how to scope the work, and how to reach a successful conclusion Explains how to determine when testing is complete Where you find organizations that are successful at product development, you are likely to find groups that practice disciplined, strategic, and thorough testing. Tapping into the authors’ decades of experience managing test groups in the automotive industry, this book provides the understanding to help ensure your organization joins the likes of these groups.
Download or read book Combinatorial based Prioritization for User session based Test Suites written by Schuyler James Manchester and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PUBLIC ABSTRACT: Software defects caused by inadequate software testing can cost billions of dollars. Further, web application defects can be costly due to the fact that most web applications handle constant user interaction. However, software testing is often under time and budget constraints. By improving the time efficiency of software testing, many of the costs associated with defects can be saved. Current methods for web application testing can take too long to generate test suites. In addition, studies have shown that user-session-based test suites often find faults missed by other testing techniques. This project addresses this problem by utilizing existing user sessions for web application testing. The software testing method provided within this project utilizes previous knowledge about combinatorial coverage testing and improves time and computer memory efficiency by only considering test cases that exist in a user-session- based test suite. The method takes the existing test suite and prioritizes the test cases based on a specific combinatorial criterion. In addition, this project presents an empirical study examining the application of the newly proposed combinatorial prioritization algorithm on an existing web application.
