Abstract

Test cases are considered an important asset in the software testing process since they are used to detect defects in the software. In order to produce quality software covering all of the requirements, the test case designer requires much time and effort in designing test cases to cover all requirements and conditions according to the test case structure. This research proposes a method for storing and retrieving of test cases affected by software requirements changes, as well as ranking the retrieved test cases using the AHP method to improve the quality of the ranking. There are to assist system testers in identifying test cases for complete regression testing. An example application of the proposed method will also be presented.
