Study on Approach for Test Case Generation Based on UML Collaboration Diagram and DFA
Zhang Ye · Computer and Modernization · 2011
UML collaborative diagram describes objects interaction and the message transferring procedure between objects.So the test scenarios can be generated according to the message flow and control flow in UML collaborative diagram.After analyzing the relationship between UML collaborative diagram and deterministic finite automata(DFA),this paper presents a method of converting an UML collaborative diagram to a DFA model,then generates test scenarios and test cases based on DFA.Finally,this method is applied to test case generation of one real project manhour quota management system.Through the data comparison and analysis of the results,the method is proved effective and practical.
