 Abstract— In a typical software development project more than 50% of software development effort is spent in testing phase. Test case design as well as execution consumes a lot of time. So automated generation of test cases is highly required. In this paper, we aim at developing and generating test cases from state machine diagram by minimizing cost and time. In our approach, first the state machine diagram is traversed. Then the conditional predicates are selected. These conditional predicates are, then transformed to generate test cases automatically, by applying function minimization technique.
