Abstract

It is necessary to improve the productivity of telecommunication software in order to provide new services quickly. This paper proposes an automatic testing system based on process programming to support the development of telecommunication software. This is achieved by using a process-describing language to interpret the testing process that is formally described as a test scenario. By using automatic testing, the productivity can be improved, and the testing period can be reduced. Furthermore, describing the testing process formally promotes process reuse
