Product Line Engineering on the Right Side of the "V"
Susan P. Gregg, Denise M. Albert, Paul Clements · 2017
Product line engineering (PLE) is well-known for the savings it brings to organizations. This paper shows how a very large, in-service systems and software product line is achieving PLE-based savings in their verification and validation phase of development. The paper addresses how to achieve the sharing across product variants while the products being tested are evolving over time. Additionally, we will give a pragmatic set of decision criteria to help answer the longstanding issue in PLE-based testing of whether to test on the domain side or the application (product) side of the product derivation process.
