Abstract:

We present a Model-Based Testing (MBT) approach in which statistical data contained in Unified Modeling Language (UML) models are used to prioritize test cases. The models are used by a test derivation tool for automatic generation of test cases. The statistical data included in the models is used by the tool to determine the order of the resulting test cases before being implemented and executed. The test outputs are analyzed and information about requirement coverage is gathered. Based on the gathered statistics, the results are automatically fed back to the UML models to prioritize those sections of the
system where failures are frequent.
