Not enough verification or enough design of test is not performing in many software developments organization as yet. Therefore, defects that can be detected and corrected during the beginning phases of development are usually found during dynamic testing, it is often observed that testing is inefficient compared to effort for testing. This study aims to suggest a method for effective testing through case study. It is useful in case of not verification and not enough design of test in the previous phase than coding. We show in a concrete way major activities that determine prioritization of testing and level of test case design through static testing, i.e. code review and analysis of code quality. And also we show role between test team and development team.

For a reliability assessment of large machinery parts, reliable data should be obtained from testing many samples for a long time. However, in case of testing these samples, testing cost is excessive; in case of life test for long time, power consumption is high; and in case of accelerated test by over load, very high cost is required to build the life testing device. Especially it is very frequent that the expensive device's life has ended during a accelerated test by over load. In this study, the design mechanism of the life testing device which excels in energy saving during the reliability test of large machinery parts has been introduced.

Object-oriented development methodologies require consistent and seamless object-oriented paradigm to be applied from analysis to testing. Testing must focuses on the state of aggregated objects. This paper suggests testing methods that satisfy such requirements. In order to confirm appropriate implementation of the user requirements, the methods apply extended use case[Jacobson et al., 1992] that are prepared form analysis stage. Testing must be performed based on the use cases because the user requirements are formally documented in the use cases. The notations of the original use case are modified for the state-based testings. The testing methods consist of a unit testing and four-level of integration testing. Particularly, the level 0 testing is based on FREE state machine [Binder, 1995, 1996]. The testing methods have been applied to 3 projects and proved their practicability.

The effectiveness of testing in Model-based Testing (MBT) for Software Product Line (SPL) can be achieved by considering fault detection in test case. The lack of fault consideration caused test case in test suite to be listed randomly. Test Case Prioritization (TCP) is one of regression techniques that is adaptively capable to detect faults as early as possible by reordering test cases based on fault detection rate. However, there is a lack of studies that measured faults in MBT for SPL. This paper proposes a Test Case Prioritization (TCP) approach based on dissimilarity and string based distance called Last Minimal for Local Maximal Distance (LM-LMD) with Dice-Jaro-Winkler Dissimilarity. LM-LMD with Dice-Jaro-Winkler Dissimilarity adopts Local Maximum Distance as the prioritization algorithm and Dice-Jaro-Winkler similarity measure to evaluate distance among test cases. This work is based on the test case generated from statechart in Software Product Line (SPL) domain context. Our results are promising as LM-LMD with Dice-Jaro-Winkler Dissimilarity outperformed the original Local Maximum Distance, Global Maximum Distance and Enhanced All-yes Configuration algorithm in terms of Average Fault Detection Rate (APFD) and average prioritization time.

An Adaptive Random Testing (ART) is one of test case generation algorithms that are designed to detect common failure patterns within input domain. The ART algorithm shows better performance than that of pure Random Testing (RT). Distance-bases ART (D-ART) and Restriction Random Testing (RRT) are well known examples of ART algorithms which are reported to have good performances. But significant drawbacks are observed as quadratic runtime and non-uniform distribution of test case. They are mainly caused by a huge amount of distance computations to generate test case which are distance based method. ART through Iterative Partitioning (IP-ART) significantly reduces the amount of computation of D-ART and RRT with iterative partitioning of input domain. However, non-uniform distribution of test case still exists, which play a role of obstacle to develop a scalable algerian. In this paper we propose a new ART method which mitigates the drawback of IP-ART while achieving improved fault-detection capability. Simulation results show that the proposed one has about 9 percent of improved F-measures with respect to other algorithms.

The testing time and cost of developed software can be reduced by automation of the whole or part of testing process. Since the testing automation tools to be used currently have been developed without their interoperability, test case information such as test procedures, test data, and expectation of test results generated at the stage of test execution cannot be shared and reused in other testing automation tools, In order to reduce testing time and cost, in this thesis, we have proposed a software testing automation framework which makes it possible to share and reuse the test case information generated in testing process. To prove the availability and effectiveness of proposed testing automation framework, three testing automation tools that are available in current market were experimented by the test scenario. As a result of experiment, the testing time and cost could be reduced by sharing and reusing the test case information in software testing automation framework.

Software testing is an important phase as it ensures the software quality. The software testing process comprises of three steps: generation, execution, and evaluation of test cases. Literature claims the usage of single and multiple 'Unified Modeling Language' (UML) diagrams to generate test cases. Using multiple UML diagrams increases test case coverage. However, the existing approaches show limitations in test case generation from UML diagrams. Therefore, in this research study, we propose an approach to generate the test cases using UML State Chart Diagram (SCD), Activity Diagram (AD), and Sequence Diagram (SD). The proposed approach transforms UML diagrams into intermediate forms: SCD Graph, AD Graph, and SD Graph respectively. Furthermore, by integrating these three graphs, a System Testing Graph (STG) is formed. Finally, test cases are identified from STG by using a traversal algorithm such as Depth First Search (DFS) that is an optimization method. The results show that the proposed approach is better compared to existing approaches in terms of coverage and performance. Moreover, the generated test cases have the ability to detect faults at the unit level, integration, and system level testing.

In the present work, ultrasonic testing method has been developed to evaluate adhesive layers in rocket motor case assembly for the reliability of the rocket. The main objective of the present work was to find debonding between steel and rubber layers. The relationship between adhesion ratio and reflected ultrasonic amplitude was calculated by considering reflection coefficient at the interface between steel and rubber layers. It was found that the higher amplitude of ultrasound is reflected for the debonding area, and shown good agreements with experimental results. The ultrasonic C-scan images offers good implements for the determination of debonding area. The nondestructive testing results were compared with the micrography of destruective testing. As results, ultrasonic testing could be utilized for the evaluation of adhesive layer in the rocket motor case assembly.

The systematic testing is frequently regretted in recent web applications because of time and cost pressure. Moreover developers have difficulties with applying the traditional testing techniques to testing web application. The approach of creating test cases for a web application from a sequence model is proposed for the rapid and efficient testing. Test cases for web application are extracted from call messages (including self-call messages) of UML (Unified Modeling Language) sequence diagram. A test case consists of messages, script functions, or server pages and additional values. Moreover a simple testing tool for web application is proposed. A URL for testing web application is created and executed by this testing tool. The URL consists of server page address and additional values. This test tool is made using Microsoft Visual Basic. The efficiency of proposed method and tool has been shown using a practical case study which reflects the development project of the web application for supporting member management.
