ABSTRACT |
This paper describes an integrated methodology for the construction of
test cases from functional specifications using the classification-tree
method. It is an integration of our extensions to the classification-hierarchy table, the classification tree construction algorithm, and the
classification tree restructuring technique. Based on the methodology,
a prototype system ADDICT, which stands for Automate D test Data
generation system using the Integrated Classification-Tree method, has
been built.
Keywords: Black box testing, classification-hierarchy table, classification tree, test data generator, test case selection |
