A SCADA System Regression Testing Method Based on Component Modification Assesment

Abstract

In the maintenance of SCADA system, requirements may have been changed, which motivates the component modification to create new versions and their accompany tests. Regression testing strategies aim at the retest for modification affection in SCADA software maintenance. This paper presents a SCADA system regression testing method based on a new Component Testing Association Model. In this method, previously executed test cases are selected to generate the minimal regression test suite by the identification and impact analysis for the modification-affected component groups.
