Abstract

Integration testing checks for compatibility and interoperability between the components in the system. Integration test models are, typically, generated independently from the other testing level models. In our research, we aim at a model-based framework across unit, integration, and acceptance level testing. This paper contributes to this framework and for the generation of integration test models from unit test models. More precisely, we focus on component interaction test scenarios identification and selection. Following our approach, at each integration step, unit test cases with interaction scenarios involving the component and the context are identified, selected and merged to build the integration test model for the next step. Unit test stubs and drivers are reused in the integration test model. Redundant test cases are eliminated from the generated test models.
