Abstract

Programs based on code mobility, in particular on Mobile Agents, are an alternative approach to conventional distributed systems. Many aspects of Mobile Agent development have been addressed. In special, languages and environments to support code mobility and Mobile Agents implementation have been proposed. The testing activity though, has practically not been addressed so far. In this paper we present an approach and a tool named JaBUTi/MA to aid the test of Mobile Agents based on structural testing criteria. The structural test of Mobile Agents introduces a series of new difficulties, in particular the problem of how to collect execution data on such a distributed environment.
