Abstract

Automated test generation is gaining popularity in the software industry, largely due to its labor-saving benefits and its ability to achieve high test coverage. The introduction of this technology into an organization does not, however, always meet with success. One reason for this is often the fact that the testing process and organization are not adjusted accordingly. Thus, in order for an organization to successfully pursue automated test generation, the test process must also be improved to enable this development. In this paper, we introduce an automated test generation add-on for the popular test process improvement model, TPI. We also present a baseline TPI profile for successful introduction of automated test generation.
