Abstract

Test case generation is essential to software test. Software test efficiency can be greatly improved through test case automatic generation. AADL Behavior Annex is an extension of AADL which can describe detailed behavior of AADL component. In this paper, we discuss a test case automatic generation method based on the AADL Behavior Annex. This method contains two parts: automatic generation of test sequences and automatic generation of test data. The former generates test sequences through dominator analysis; the later uses subsection gradient descent algorithm to generate test data.
