Abstract

An automatic generator is used to generate programming codes from a specific domain. We use this concept to introduce an automatic tool for software testing, where the tool is used to generate the test cases automatically according to the system's requirements. Manual creation of test cases is time consuming and high costing. The purpose of producing the tool to generate test cases automatically is to reduce the cost of testing the system as well as to save the time of deriving test cases manually. The system's requirements are transformed using use case diagrams, flow of events and sequence diagrams. The flow of events and sequence diagrams are used to check the consistency of the use cases as well as the validity of test cases.
