Uma estratégia para redução de conjuntos de sequências de teste para máquinas de estados finitos / A strategy for reducing test suites from finite state machines

Jorge Francisco Cutigi 18 June 2010 (has links)
O teste baseado em modelos visa à derivação de casos de teste a partir de modelos produzidos ao longo do desenvolvimento de software. Nesse contexto, as Máquinas de Estados Finitos têm sido amplamente pesquisadas e utilizadas para derivação de seqüências de teste. Para isso, vários métodos de geração de seqüências de teste têm sido desenvolvidos há várias décadas. O objetivo desses métodos é a obtenção de um conjunto de teste que seja capaz de revelar os defeitos de uma implementação. Entretanto, muitas vezes os conjuntos gerados são muito grandes, o que torna sua aplicação inviável. Trabalhos recentes definiram condições que podem ser utilizadas para investigar mecanismos de redução de casos de teste. Este trabalho apresenta uma estratégia para a redução de conjuntos de seqüências de teste a partir de Máquinas de Estados Finitos com base em condições de suficiência. A estratégia baseia-se na combinação de seqüências de um conjunto de teste, de forma a reduzir o número de seqüências e o tamanho delas, mantendo a completude do conjunto. São apresentadas seis abordagens de redução baseadas na estratégia proposta, as quais foram implementadas em uma ferramenta. Para avaliar as abordagens foram conduzidos estudos experimentais, os quais também serviram para inferir sobre as características e propriedades de cada abordagem. Além disso, um estudo de caso com MEFs reais também foi realizado / Model-based testing aims at generating test cases from models produced along the software development process. In this context, Finite State Machines (FSM) have been largely investigated and used for generating test sequences. In the past decades, several test generation methods have been proposed to obtain test suites that are able to reveal implementation faults. Nevertheless, most of the generated test suites are huge, thus hindering their application in practice. Recent research has defined new sufficient conditions that can be employed in mechanisms for reducing the length of test sequences. This work presents a strategy based on sufficient conditions for reducing the length of test cases derived from FSMs. Our strategy is based on sequence combination of a test suite, aiming to reduce the number of sequences and their length, however still keeping full fault coverage. Six reduction approaches are presented based on the proposed strategy and implemented in a tool. In order to evaluate the strategy, we conducted experimental studies that identified characteristics and properties for each of the six proposed approaches. Moreover, a case study with real-world FSMs was performed

Ensino e aprendizado de fundamentos de programação: uma abordagem baseada em teste de software / Teaching and learning of programming foundations: an approach based on software testing

Draylson Micael de Souza 13 April 2012 (has links)
O ensino de fundamentos de programação não é uma tarefa trivial muitos estudantes têm dificuldades em compreender os conceitos abstratos de programação e possuem visões erradas sobre a atividade de programação. Uma das iniciativas que tem sido investigada a fim de amenizar os problemas associados refere-se ao ensino conjunto de conceitos básicos de programação e de teste de software. A introdução da atividade de teste pode ajudar o desenvolvimento das habilidades de compreensão e análise nos estudantes. Além disso, aprendendo teste mais cedo os alunos podem se tornar melhores testadores e desenvolvedores. Seguindo esta tendência, em trabalhos anteriores foram investigados alguns mecanismos de apoio ao ensino integrado de fundamentos de programação e teste. Dentre os mecanismos investigados destaca-se a proposição de um ambiente de apoio para submissão e avaliação automática de trabalhos práticos dos alunos, baseado em atividades de teste de software PROGTEST. Em sua primeira versão, a PROGTEST foi integrada à ferramenta JABUTISERVICE, que apoia o teste estrutural de programas escritos em Java. O presente projeto de mestrado visou a dar continuidade aos trabalhos já realizados, tendo como principal objetivo a identificação e integração de diferentes ferramentas de teste ao ambiente PROGTEST, explorando tanto técnicas e critérios de teste diferenciados como linguagens de programação distintas. O ambiente PROGTEST também foi aplicado e validado em diferentes cenários de ensino, considerando diferentes linguagens e técnicas de teste. Em linhas gerais, os resultados evidenciam a viabilidade da aplicação do ambiente em cenários de ensino e aprendizagem / The teaching of programming foundations is not a trivial task - many students have difficulty to understand the abstract concepts of programming and have wrong views about the programming activity. Initiatives have been investigated in order to address the related issues. One of them refers to the integrated teaching of programming foundations and software testing. The introduction of testing can help students to develop programming comprehension and analysis skills. Moreover, teaching testing earlier could become the students better testers and developers. Following this perspective, previous studies have investigated mechanisms to support the integrated teaching of programming foundations and software testing. Among them, we highlight the proposition of a environment for the submission and automatic evaluation of programming assignments, based on testing activities - PROGTEST. In its first version, PROGTEST was integrated with JABUTISERVICE tool, which supports the structural testing of Java programs. This work aims at identifying and integrating different testing tools to the PROGTEST environment, exploring both different testing criteria and different programming languages. The PROGTEST environment was also applied and validated in different teaching scenarios, with different languages and testing techniques. In general, the results show the feasibility of applying the environment in the integrated teaching of programming foundations and software testing

Uma abordagem de predição de falhas de software no contexto de desenvolvimento ágil / A fault prediction approach in the contexto of agile development

Ricardo Fontão Verhaeg 24 March 2016 (has links)
A atividade de teste é essencial para a garantia de qualidade do software e deveria ser empregada durante todo o processo de desenvolvimento. Entretanto, o esforço para a sua aplicação e o alto custo envolvido, comprometem sua utilização de maneira adequada. Durante o processo de desenvolvimento ágil, onde o tempo é um fator crítico, otimizar a atividade de testes sem afetar a qualidade é uma tarefa desafiadora. Apesar do crescente interesse em pesquisas sobre testes no contexto de métodos ágeis, poucas evidências são encontradas sobre avaliação do esforço para elaboração, evolução e manutenção dos testes nesse contexto. Este trabalho propõe uma abordagem para predição de defeitos desenvolvida para o contexto do desenvolvimento ágil e, portanto, considerando as características deste processo de desenvolvimento. Essa abordagem pode ser aplicada quando se considera ou não o desenvolvimento dirigido a testes. A abordagem permite priorizar a execução dos testes com base em uma lista de arquivos que apresentam maior probabilidade de apresentarem defeitos. A abordagem proposta foi avaliada por meio de um estudo de caso conduzido em um ambiente real de desenvolvimento. Como resultado obtido, observou-se que a abordagem melhorou a qualidade do projeto desenvolvido, sem aumentar o esforço durante a atividade de teste de software. / The testing activity is essential to ensure the software quality and should be applied during all steps of the developing process. However the required effort to do this and the high cost involved, compromises its proper usage. During the agile development process, in which time is a critical factor, optimizing the testing activity without affecting quality is a challenge. Despite the growing interest in research based agile method testing, few works are found on the evaluation of the effort to prepare, develop and maintain test cases in this context. This paper proposes an approach for fault prediction in the context of agile development and therefore considering the characteristics of this development process. This approach can be applied both when considering test-driven development or not. It allows prioritizing the execution of tests based on a list containing files most likely to fail. The proposed approach was evaluated by a case study conducted in a real development environment. The results indicate that the approach can improve the quality of the projects without increasing the effort during the testing activity.

Bör man automatisera tester? En jämförande studie mellan manuell och automatiserad testning och de krav som skulle kunna ställas på en automatisering / Is automation of tests an option? A comparative study between manual and automated testing and the requirements that could be placed on an automation

Magnusson, Anna, Gemfors, Mimmi, Carlsson, Kevin January 2019 (has links)
Automating test processes is becoming more and more up-to-date and one of the reasons is that manual tests are time-consuming and complicated. The aim of the study is to identify the manual test process in integration systems to see if there can be a value in automating them and which requirements can then form the basis of an automation. Pros and cons of both manual and automated tests are highlighted in the study in order to make a fair comparison between them. The advantages of the automation that has been highlighted have since, together with collected empirical data at the company Pulsen Integration, been used to produce a requirement list for automation. The study addresses whether it is worth automating all processes or whether some of the test activities work better as manual. By looking at Pulsen Integration's testing processes, one could see that some flexible processes are better as manual, while more general activities can be more easily automated. The study has had a qualitative approach and the chosen respondents from Pulsen Integration contributed with information to be able to produce a relevant list of requirements. We believe that the result presented can be generalized to companies in similar context.

Generování testovacích vstupů podle stopy programu / Generating Test Inputs Based on Program Trace

Sušovský, Tomáš January 2019 (has links)
This thesis focuses on design and implementation of a tool for automated generation of test inputs for a specified program trace. The aim of the thesis is to make development of testing suites (complying a given advanced coverage criteria) easier and more effective. These kinds of test suites are used in critical applications with code base written in low-level languages like C/C++ with strict restrictions applied. The tool investigates a program model and what conditions must be met to execute program in a way following provided trace. The tool uses advanced SMT-solver tool (software tool specialized for solving satisfiability problem) for generating fitting values. LLVM compiler framework libraries are used for modelling a program. Z3 library is used as a SMT-solver backend. This thesis brings results in architectural and implementation design of a tool capable of test inputs generation based on program analysis and provided program trace to cover.

Performance comparison of GraalVM, Oracle JDK andOpenJDK for optimization of test suite execution time

Fong, Fredric, Raed, Mustafa January 2021 (has links)
Testing, when done correctly, is an important part of software development sinceit is a measure of the quality of a software in question. Most of the highly ratedsoftware projects therefore have test suites implemented that include unit tests,integration tests, and other types of tests. However, a challenge regarding the testsuite is that it needs to run each time new code changes are proposed. From thedeveloper’s perspective, it might not always be necessary to run the whole testsuite for small code changes. Previous studies have tried to tackle this probleme.g., by only running a subset of the test suite. This research investigates runningthe whole test suite of Java projects faster, by testing the Java Development Kits(JDKs) GraalVM Enterprise Edition (EE) and Community Edition (CE) againstOracle JDK and OpenJDK for Java 8 and 11. The research used the test suiteexecution time as a metric to compare the JDKs. Another metric that wasconsidered was the test suites number of test cases, used to try and find a breakingpoint for when GraalVM becomes beneficial. The tests were performed on twotest machines, where the first used 20 out of 48 tested projects and the secondused 11 out of 43 projects tested. When looking at the average of five runs,GraalVM EE 11 performed best in 11 out of 18 projects on the first test machine,compared to its closest competitor, and in 7 out of 11 projects on the second testmachine both for JDK 8 and 11. However GraalVM EE 8 did not give anybenefits to the first test machine compared to its competitors, which might indicatethat the hardware plays a vital role in the performance of GraalVM EE 8. Numberof test cases could not be used to determine a breaking point for when GraalVM isbeneficial, but it was observed that GraalVM did not show any benefits forprojects with an execution time of fewer than 39 seconds. It is observed thatGraalVM CE, does not perform well as compared to the other JDKs, and in allcases, its performance is not countable due to less non-satisfied and inefficientbehavior.

Testování aplikací s využitím Linuxových kontejnerů / Testing Applications Using Linux Containers

Marhefka, Matúš January 2016 (has links)
This thesis discusses software containers (Docker containers in particular) as a variant of server virtualization. Instead of virtualizing hardware, software containers rest on top of a single operating system instance and are much more efficient than hypervisors in system resource terms. Docker containers make it easy to package and ship applications, and guarantee that applications will always run the same, regardless of the environment they are running in. There is a whole range of use cases of containers, this work examines their usage in the field of software testing. The thesis proposes three main use case categories for running software systems in Docker containers. It introduces aspects for applications running in containers, which should give a better overview about an application setting within containers infrastructure. Subsequently, possible issues with testing software systems running inside Docker containers are discussed and the testing methods which address the presented issues are proposed. One proposed testing method was also used in the implementation of the framework for testing software running in Docker containers which was developed within this work.
