A Goal-Oriented Software Testing Methodology

In software testing, the fault detection in any software construct is very important factor to check how efficiently testing process is carried out. While testing software, it is required to take some coverage criteria to check the testing methodology. The paper shows a way for fault detection for UML behavioral diagrams. Different types of faults which can occur in UML diagrams are discussed and a fault model is proposed for combinational diagram made by integrating UML behavioral diagram such as activity and sequence diagrams. The percentage of fault detected in software is calculated using fault model and to prove how efficient is the software testing process.

Business Changes

In this chapter we deal with testing of business processes implemented using computer systems. We have discussed challenges associated with business process testing, identified aspects of business processes that need to be tested and capabilities that the testing tool(s) or environment should have in order to perform such testing. The chapter also discusses a commonly used software testing methodology in light business process testing for provisioning of structured mechanism for business process testing. One of the aspects of managing complex and dynamic business processes is making sure that the process delivers what is required of it at all times. Dynamics of the business may require frequent changes in the business process and whenever such changes takes place there is a need to test the process thoroughly to ascertain that the process is still working according to the requirements laid down for it. This becomes even more important if the business process is implemented using computer systems since over a period of time the computer software becomes more prone to error as it is updated frequently to accommodate the business changes hence the requirement for testing complex business processes.
