Towards scenario-based testing of UML diagrams. An introduction to the atlas model management architecture.īrosch, P., Egly, U., Gabmeyer, S., Kappel, G., Seidl, M., Tompits, H., et al. A case study was conducted in a real software towards the evaluation of its applicability.īézivin, J., Jouault, F., Touzet, D. It also applies ModelJUnit and JUnit libraries for an automatic generation of test cases. This article introduces a systematic procedure for the generation of tests from UML models that uses concepts of model-driven engineering (MDE) for formalizing UML sequence diagrams into extended finite state machines and providing a precise semantics for them. Nevertheless, due to the lack of formal semantics, its diagrams can be given ambiguous interpretations and are not suitable for testing automation. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) has become the de facto standard for software modeling. However, formal models are not a common practice in the industry. One of the most used formal modeling techniques is the interpretation of a system as an extended finite state machine (EFSM). If the model is formal and machine-readable, test cases can be derived automatically. The effectiveness of model-based testing (MBT) is mainly due to its potential for automation.
