In the current article a novel test generation algorithm is presented for deterministic finite state machine specifications based on the recently introduced All-Transition-State criteria. The size of the resulting test suite and the time required for test suite generation are investigated through analytical and practical analyses and are also compared to the Transition Tour, Harmonized State Identifiers and random walk test generation methods. The fault detection capabilities of the different approaches are also investigated with simulations applying randomly injected transfer faults.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
