Automated implementation of test scenarios by UML combinational diagrams via uniformed algorithm

Abstract

The software testing process is not only important but also a complex stage SDLC (software development life cycle) process. For estimating the activities of the system in the software testing stage testers implement test scenarios as input for the system under test (SUT). For improving the superiority of the system and also finding faults implementing test-cases shows an energetic role. Our research work target towards implementation of test cases automatically by combinational Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagram so that it can display higher effectiveness in starting phase of the system development procedure of model-based testing. This research uses UML diagrams like Use Case Diagram (UCD), Activity Diagram (AD), and a combination of both generates System Testing Graph (STG). The combination of these two diagrams has been proved as the well-suited diagrams to implement test cases from the earlier combination graphs. Our technique suggested in this research paper is Uniformed Graph Traversing (UGT) Algorithm that is combined with Level Order Traversal (LOT) Algorithm to implement predictable test scenarios. In this research paper, we prove that the UGT algorithm is useful to implement test scenarios, and also these test scenarios are providing precise outcomes; each vertex existing in the test scenarios includes some situation. In this proposed approach we also disclose faults for example decision fault, fault of dependency, interaction fault, and loop fault which results in assessment effort reduction. The implemented test scenarios are directed to one requests controlling tool which can be in contradiction of the requests. It also protects time period and work and also, raises the value of implemented test scenarios, thus enhances the complete routine in a testing phase.
