Abstract
A typical feature of MANETs is that network topology is dynamically changed by node movement. When we execute state transition testing for such protocols, first we draw the Finite State Machine (FSM) with respect to each number of neighbor nodes. Next, we create the state transition matrix from the FSMs. Then, we generate test cases from the state transition matrix. However, the state transition matrix is getting much large because the number of states and the number of transitions increase explosively with increase of the number of neighbor nodes. As a result, the number of test cases increases, too. In this paper, we propose a new method to reduce the number of test cases by using equivalent division method. In this method, we decide a representative input to each state, which is selected from equivalent inputs to the states. By using our proposed method, we can generate state transition matrix which is hard to affect increasing the number of neighbor nodes. As a consequence, the number of test cases can be reduced.
