Abstract

To reduce the effort in identifying adequate test cases and to improve the effectiveness of testing process, a graph based method has been suggested to automate test case generation for Unified Modeling Language object diagram. The system files produced in the modeling exercise have been used to list all possible valid and invalid test cases that are required to validate the software. The diagrams are treated as graphs to generate the test cases. The effectiveness of the test cases has been evaluated using mutation testing.
