Towards the Establishment of an Ontology of Software Testing.
Ellen Francine Barbosa, Elisa Yumi Nakagawa, José Carlos Maldonado · 2006
A growing interest on the establishment of ontologies has been observed for the most different knowledge domains. This work presents OntoTest – an ontology of software testing, which has been developed to support acquisition, organization, reuse and sharing of testing knowledge. OntoTest has been built with basis on ISO/IEC 12207 standard and intends to explore the different aspects involved in the testing activity. Specifically, we are interested in defining a common well-established vocabulary for testing, which can be useful to develop supporting tools as well as to increase the inter-operability among them.
