“…A lot of scenario-based testing works focus on extracting scenarios from UML diagrams, such as the SCENTOR approach [24] or SCENT [20] using statecharts. The SOOFT approach [22] proposes an object oriented framework for performing scenario-based testing. In [3], Binder proposes the notion of round-trip scenario test that cover all event-response path of an UML sequence diagram.…”

We present in this paper a model-based testing approach aiming at generating test cases from a UML/OCL model and a given test property. The property is expressed using a dedicated formalism based on patterns, and automatically translated into an automaton. We propose new automata coverage criteria that are tailored to the property automata we consider. These criteria are based on the coverage of a relevant subset of the transitions related to the original property, aiming at producing test cases that illustrate the dynamics of the system described in the property. In addition, we propose to produce test cases that can ensure the robustness of the system w.r.t. the property, by mutating the property automaton, in order to try to provoke events that would be forbidden by the property. This approach has been implemented into a large tool set and it has been experimented on realistic case studies, in the context of industrial research projects.Comment: In Proceedings MBT 2014, arXiv:1403.704

Policy-based systems consist of interacting software artifacts and, at first glance, can be tested as any other software system. In a policy-based system, however, the behavior of system entities may change dynamically and frequently, depending on the policy rules governing this behavior. Therefore, policy-based systems demand for a testing approach that especially allows for the testing of dynamically changing system behavior. Thus, testing of policy rules has to check if the behavior that is actually enforced by a set of policies, conforms to the intended behavior of the corresponding system entities. Scenarios are an important means to specify behavior of software entities. In this paper, we introduce an approach to test policybased systems with scenarios, and present an (embedded) domain-specific language for scenario-based testing.

We present in this paper 1 a Scenario Based Testing approach for UML/OCL behavioral models. Scenarios are expressed using a regular expression syntax, that makes it possible to specify iterations and choices between sequences of operation calls, specific operation behaviors to be activated, and intermediate states that have to be reached by the scenario. This expressive scenario language describes sequences of operations that compose the scenario and restrict the execution of the model to representative subset that complements the functional test cases produced by a test generator. This approach is tool supported by a scenario editor and coupled with the model animation engine of the Test Designer tool that is used to animate unfolded test cases and check their consistency with respect to the initial test scenario. The resulting abstract test cases can then be integrated back to the Test Designer repository so as to benefit from the test publishers offered by the tool.
