Abstract

This paper introduces our novel ontologies for the generation of fault injection test cases and failure detection. Our first ontology is an extension of a standard fault model that is constructed through decomposition to create a framework that facilitates automatic test generation. The second ontology is based on a set of failure modes and again decomposed to create a framework to aid in the automatic detection of system failures. We demonstrate the WSFIT method and fault injection tools with the use of a simulated real-world system.
