To achieve the goal of creating products for a specific market segment, implementation of Software Product Line (SPL) is required to fulfill specific needs of customers by managing a set of common features and exploiting the variabilities between the products. Testing product-by-product is not feasible in SPL due to the combinatorial explosion of product number, thus, Test Case Prioritization (TCP) is needed to select a few test cases which could yield high number of faults. Among the most promising TCP techniques is similarity-based TCP technique which consists of similarity distance measure and prioritization algorithm. The goal of this paper is to propose an enhanced string distance and prioritization algorithm which could reorder the test cases resulting to higher rate of fault detection. Comparative study has been done between different string distance measures and prioritization algorithms to select the best techniques for similarity-based test case prioritization. Identified enhancements have been implemented to both techniques for a better adoption of prioritizing SPL test cases. Experiment has been done in order to identify the effectiveness of enhancements done for combination of both techniques. Result shows the effectiveness of the combination where it achieved highest average fault detection rate, attained fastest execution time for highest number of test cases and accomplished 41.25% average rate of fault detection. The result proves that the combination of both techniques improve SPL testing effectiveness compared to other existing techniques.

Rapid Quality assurance is an important element in software testing in order to produce high quality products in Software Product Line (SPL). One of the testing techniques that can enhance product quality is Model-Based Testing (MBT). Due to MBT effectiveness in terms of reuse and potential to be adapted, this technique has become an efficient approach that is capable to handle SPL requirements. In this paper, the authors present an approach to manage variability and requirements by using Feature Model (FM) and MBT. This paper focuses on modelling the integration towards enhancing product quality and reducing testing effort. Further, the authors considered coverage criteria, including pairwise coverage, all-state coverage, and all-transition coverage, in order to improve the quality of products. For modelling purposes, the authors constructed a mapping model based on variability in FM and behaviour from statecharts. The proposed approach was validated using mobile phone SPL case study.
