Abstract

We address the problem of misalignment of artifacts developed in agile software development projects and those required by model-based test generation tools. Our solution is domain specific and relies on the existence of domain experts to design the test models. The testers interface the test generation systems with use cases that are converted into sequences of so called action words corresponding to user events at a high level of abstraction. To support this scheme, we introduce a coverage language and an algorithm for automatic test generation.
