Modeling and simulation is a technique used for operational verification, performance analysis, operational optimization, and prediction of target systems. Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) of this representative technology defines models with a strict formalism and stratifies the structures between the models. When the atomic DEVS models operate with an intention different the target system, the simulation may lead to erroneous decision-making. However, most DEVS systems have the exclusion of the model test or provision of the manual test, so developers spend a lot of time verifying the atomic models. In this paper, we propose a script-based automated test system for accurate and fast validation of atomic models in Python-based DEVS. The proposed system uses both the existing method of manual testing and the new method of the script-based testing. As Experimental results in our system, the script-based test method was executed within 24 millisecond when the script was executed 10 times consecutively. Thus, the proposed system guarantees a fast verification time of the atomic models in our script-based test and improves the reusability of the test script.

Smart TV manufacturers have constructed automatic Smart TV execution environment for reducing cost of Smart TV testing. However, the conventional test methods still require high cost because of manual test script written by testers. Test scripts manully written have less reusability, and then less reusable scripts cannot be used for new TV models. In this paper, we propose constructing reusable test models for Smart TV and present a model-based Smart TV test script generation method using the modes. And we apply the method to NetCast Smart TV to confirm the effectiveness of enhancing reusability.

The major concern of component users who develop applications using the existing components is to confirm whether a component is collaborating with the different components in accordance with the requirements. Therefore, interoperability testing whose role is to check whether components collaborate with each other within the new operating environment not within the component development content of each component is considered as an importance research topic. In this paper, we propose a test case generation technique for interoperability test of component based software. The proposed technique defines a test model for generating test cases. The proposed technique generates test models from the use case specification and thereafter from these models, test cases for Interoperability testing are derived. In addition, we describe a tool which Implements the procedures for generating test sequences from test models.

In this paper we design the system test model for the weapon system embedded software based on the Time Factor Method(TFM) considering time factors and suggest the results through the case study. For doing this, we discuss the features, system tests and the object-oriented model based UML notations of the weapon system embedded software. And we give a test method considering time factors, a measuring method to time factors, and a test case selection algorithm as an approach to the TFM for designing the system test model. The TFM based system test model consists of three factors (X, Y, Z) in the weapon system embedded software. With this model, we can extract test cases through the selection algorithm for a maximum time path in 'X', identify the objects related to the Sequence Diagram in 'Y' and measure the execution time of each objects which is identified by the Timing Diagram in 'Z' Also, we present the method of extracting the system test cases by applying the proposed system test model to the 'Multi-function missile defense system'.

This paper proposes a modified RRT (Rapidly exploring Random Tree) algorithm utilizing a heuristic input analysis and suggests a test case generation method from Simulink/Stateflow model using the proposed RRT algorithm. Though the typical RRT algorithm is an efficient method to solve the reachability problem to definitely be resolved for generating test cases of model in a black box manner, it has a drawback, an inefficiency of test case generation that comes from generating random inputs without considering the internal states and the test targets of model. The proposed test case generation method increases efficiency of test case generation by analyzing the test targets to be satisfied at the current state and heuristically deciding the inputs of model based on the analysis during expanding an RRT, while maintaining the merit of RRT algorithm. The proposed method is evaluated with the models of ECUs embedded in a commercial passenger's car. The performance is compared with that of the typical RRT algorithm.

Because of the ever-increasing software complexity, model-based development techniques are becoming an essential technique in software development. However, even if model-based techniques are used, the test case generation for complex software is still a challenge to solve. In this paper, we propose a method to generate automatic test cases based on UML model using custom parser and SMT solver. By proposed technique, a test case can be generated even though the model is described in a platform independent language such as action language, or in a platform dependent language. In addition, a concolic execution technique is applied to efficiently generate test cases in the model. In this paper, we present a case study on the power window switch model of Hyundai Santa Fe through the proposed test case generation technique.

Software testing is important to determine the reliability of the system, a task that requires a lot of effort and cost. Model-based testing has been proposed as a way to reduce these costs by automating test designs from models that regularly represent system requirements. For each path of model to generate an input value to perform a test, meta-heuristic technique is used to find the test data. In this paper, we propose an automatic test data generation method using a slicing method and a priority policy, and suppress unnecessary computation by excluding variables not related to target path. And then, experimental results show that the proposed method generates test data more effectively than conventional method.

본 연구에서는 시간 요소를 고려한 무기체계 소프트웨어의 시스템 테스트 모델을 제시한다. 이를 위해 컴포넌트 기반의 UML 표기법과 무기체계의 시간 제약 특징을 고려한 무기체계 소프트웨어의 시스템 테스트 모델인 TFM(Time Factor Method) 모델을 제안한다. TFM 모델은 세 가지 요소인 (X.Y,Z)으로 구성되어 있는데. "X" 에서는 최대시간경로를 선정하는 알고리즘을 통해 테스트 케이스가 도출되고, "Y" 에서는 Sequence Diagram과 관련된 컴포넌트(오브젝트)를 식별하고, "Z"에서는 Timing Diagram을 통하여 식별된 각각의 컴포넌트의 실행시간을 측정한다. 또한 제안된 TFM 모델의 적용사례를 들어 테스트 케이스를 도출한다.
