CS614: Advanced Topics in Software Engineering
Software Testing
Fall 2007

We will discuss current research and practice in the areas of model-based software testing, testing aspect-oriented software, and testing distributed systems.

Model-based software testing: Using UML models to test software, validation of UML designs, model execution and testing, test case generation

Testing aspect-oriented softare: Fault models, test adequacy criteria, testing techniques (unit and integration)

Testing distributed systems: Fault models, test management, fault injection testing

The course will be run as a seminar. Students will present research papers and write summaries and critiques. Projects are a major component of the grade and they involve research or implementation along with a term paper.

The first few classes will be devoted to lectures that review background material on software testing. Student paper presentations will begin after these lectures.

Prerequisites: CS514/CS517/CS518, or written consent of instructor
