Research and Implementation of a Reuse-Oriented Test Design Model
Chongchong Zhao · Journal of Chinese Computer Systems · 2006
ROTDM, a model of software test design,is proposed to support effective test reuse based on the analysis of reusable test assets and their relationships. The model abstracts reusable test assets from generic testing concepts and supports test reuse at different granularities.Three reusing mechanisms are defined including citation, composition and inheritance.The paper also introduces the scripting language for specifying ROTDM, and the XML-based exchange mechanism to support test cooperation and collaboration in a distribute environment. Experiments results are presented to illustrate the proposed approach.
