Integration of Model-Based Functional Testing Procedures within a Creation Environment for Value Added Services

Actual Service Creation Environments (SCE) do not support functional testing of automatically created value added services. This leads to a problem as there is no verification that the service is created properly according to the requirement’s specification. This paper presents an approach to integrate a testing framework into an existing SCE, which enables systematic and effective functional testing of value added services. The procedure is based on the idea that a behaviour model is created from which the amount of test cases for a specific service can be derived. The identified test cases are transferred to TTCN-3 (Testing and Test Control Notation 3) code and executed on the created service, which is the SUT (System under Test).
