Test Case Reuse based on ESIM Model

Abstract

Software testing is crucial to guarantee the reliability of software, and test case plays an important role in software testing. Test cases are mainly written by testers, which not only consumes a lot of time, but the quality of test cases depends heavily on the designer’s technical capability. Test case reuse technology can reuse historically executed test cases, which are written by experts and stored in the knowledge base. Different from the test case reuse based on modeling and other methods, we propose a test case reuse technology based on the similarity of requirements documents, and use the model ESIM (Enhanced Sequential Inference Model), which performs well in the field of text matching. when employing this method, testers do not have to possess rich experiences and high-level expertise, in this way, the issue of the stability of design quality caused by difference of designer’s technical capability is solved.
