Control-flow based testing of Prolog programs
Gang Luo, G.V. Bochmann, B. Sarikaya, M. Martin Boyer · 2003
Presents test selection criteria for Prolog programs which are based on control flow. The control flow in Prolog programs is not obvious because of the declarative nature of Prolog. The authors present two types of control flow graphs to represent the hidden control flow of Prolog programs explicitly. A fault model is developed for Prolog programs for guidance on test selection. Test selection criteria are given in terms of the coverage on these control flow graphs. Under the given fault model, the effectiveness of these criteria is analyzed in terms of fault detection capability of the test cases produced with these criteria.>
