Test Case Generation Using Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm
Keywords:
Sequence diagram, Test Case Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization, Visual Paradigm 12.0Abstract
Today`s era is of software. To deliver the best software to the customer it is very important to test the software before delivery. So the software testing becomes an independent field of software engineering. The crucial section of software testing is to generate the test cases. In this paper I proposed a model which is based on sequence diagram. That generate more dynamic test cases because of sequence diagram. Whereas a testing which is based on use case diagram is generates only static test cases. In this paper information will be extracted from sequence diagram. For this first of all sequecne diagram is created on the given problem. After this dependency table will be generated. Dependency graph will be generated from dependency table. At last test cases will be generated from dependency graph. These test cases will be optimized by Discrete Particle Swarm Intelligence Algorithm.
