Abstract :
The paper describes a new process for automating and controlling functional software testing, using a model of an application´s desired behavior. The technology, known as Model Reference Technology, or MRT, is described. The process used to build a model and generate tests is explained and examples given. Samples of the results obtained by Cadence Design Systems using production applications of this technology are included.
