Abstract :
UML activity diagrams (UADs) are widely employed to model the behavior of software systems under development. To test the implemented systems, the UAD specification is a reasonable basis. Generating a complete suite of test scenarios is a challenging task in particular when the systems under development are large and complex enough. In this paper, we describe a model-driven testing tool TSGen which can automatically generate test scenarios based on the UAD. We examine the design and implementation issues of the TSGen. With the TSGen, testers can better plan testing schedule and save the efforts on developing test suites.
