Visual Requirements Specification and Automated Test Generation for Digital Applications
Kapil Singi, Vikrant Kaulgud, Dipin Era · 2015
Digital, an amalgamation of social, cloud, mobility and analytics, is being widely used by enterprises for building innovative business applications. In digital applications, there is a healthy tension between 'business' and 'IT', leading to a rapidly evolving digital application. Often, digital applications have many stakeholders, requiring a role-based access and visualization of data. There is an emphasis on user experience. Due to such characteristics, a visual approach, such as 'Pretotyping', to documenting and validating requirements is required. While this creates a better connect between business users and business analysts, it makes testing more difficult. In this paper, we present a rationale for visual requirements of digital applications, and then present a graph-model based approach for automated generation of test cases from visual requirements.
