Abstract

In this demonstration paper, we present the CSTL Processor, a tool to support the validation of two fundamental quality properties of conceptual schemas (correctness and completeness) by testing. The CSTL Processor supports the management, execution and automatic computation of the verdicts of test cases which formalize stakeholders’ needs and expectations.
