  • DO-330 Software Tool Qualification Considerations is a guideline for development of tools used to develop/verify software and hardware installed on aircraft. And among several processes, the verification process is very crucial as it occupies a large proportion for DO-330. Especially, in order to qualify tool with high safety level, test objectives must be performed with independence, accordingly, more time, cost, and manpower are required than other objectives. In addition, even if the test cases or test procedures are well defined, the higher the complexity of the test the higher probability of human error occurs. In this paper, we propose Script-based Test Automation Agent software structure for efficient DO-330 verification process of A661UAGEN tool developed by Hanwha Systems. Compared to the test performed manually by the test engineer, testing time of the Script-based Test Automation Agent is reduced by 87.5% and testing productivity is increased by 43.75%.

  • Software has become an integral part of almost any system, triggered by the ever-growing demand for automation and artificial intelligent throughout engineering domains. The complexities of software-centric systems are also increasing, which make software test efforts become essential in software development projects. In this study, we applied systems engineering methodology in generating software test cases. We found out the similarities between requirements analysis and traceability concept of systems engineering and test specification contents of software test. In terms of acceptance test, software test cases could be considered as validation requirements. We also suggested a method to determine test order using a SysML modeling tool.

  • The importance of mobile software test is being addressed to improve the productivity and reliability of the software. Test automation technique based on mobile platform is required for effective application of mobile software test. That is, a technique is needed to generate test case for mobile platform API. When test case generated, software productivity and reliability are improved, while test duration and cost are decreased. In this paper, we identified test case generation scope through previous works about test automation, suggested keyword driven method, a test case generation technique on J2ME platform, and recognized that proposed method can be applicable to generating test case based on J2ME platform.

  • Agile development is mentioned a lot by developers these days. XP or Scrum is one of the popular development processes, and it says that unit test automation would drive an agile development successful. The success of unit test automation depends on how well to compare an execution result to its own expected result. that is why this paper focuses on the comparison part. This paper introduces how to build test codes for unit testing, and then concludes with mentioning two considerations of unit testing automation. First, test codes for void-typed methods need Mock Framework to monitor their behavior. Second, the comparison of execution results and expected results is hard to implement in case of testing void-typed methods. We check every sentences of a test path to decide if the testing is fail or pass.

  • Test cases in the existing weapon system software were created manually by the tester analyzing the test items defined in the software integration test procedure. However, existing test case generation method has two limitations. First, the quality of test cases can vary depending on the tester's ability to analyze the test items. Second, excessive time and cost may be incurred in writing test cases. This paper proposes a method to automatically generate test cases based on the requirements model and specifications to overcome the limitations of the existing weapon system software test case generation. Generate test sequences and test data based on the use case event model, a model representing the requirements of the weapon system software, and the use case specification specifying the requirements. The proposed method was applied to 8 target models constituting the avionics control system, producing 30 test sequences and 8 test data.

  • As an Embedded system get more complicated, the importance of the software test increases. Especially it is mandatory to test the embeded software for a charge degrade of the development company which is happened due to the error, a danger element clearance to the customer, a performance enhance of the system. In this paper, we propose efficient test method which discovers the bug an embedded system using suitable test case selection and automation test.

  • Various artifacts that are produced as software R&D project progresses contain research plan, research report, software requirements and design descriptions, etc. When conducting a software R&D project, it is necessary to confirm that the developed system has implemented its research requirements well. However, various research results make it difficult to design appropriate tests. So, there is a practical need for us to comprehensively handle the planning, execution, and reporting of software test for finding and verifying information related to the research. In this paper, we propose a useful method for software test process in R&D project which supports model based software testing. The proposed method supports automation of test design and generation of test data by explicitly separating each step of System Under Test (SUT). The method utilizes the various models representing the control flow of the function to extract the information necessary for testing the system. And it supports a systematic testing process based on TMMi and ISO 29119. Finally, we show the validity of the method by implementing a prototype with basic functionality to generate test data from software behavioral models.
