Abstract

Domain Based Testing (DBT) as a test generation method based on domain analysis and domain modeling. Domain models serve as a structure to generate tests. Domain Based Testing forms a family of test generation methods. Each member of the family defines a specialized domain analysis and a domain model for each problem domain or class of software. To demonstrate these principles, we define a domain analysis and domain model for systems with a command-language interface. The analysis exploits information from the command language, and the domain model stores syntax and semantic information needed for test case generation. The domain analysis for command-based systems is a part of the Test Generation Process Model. The paper also introduces an interactive test generation tool called Sleuth.
