Abstract

<P><SPAN class=style11><FONT face=Arial size=2>The current industrial trend to increasing complexity and functionality in software and electronic components leads to an ever&#8211;growing demand for software quality – combined with an increasing error&#8211;proneness which is also related to shortened development times&#046; In order to remain competitive, an early and continuous consideration and assurance of system quality becomes an asset of ever&#8211;increasing importance in industrial software development&#046; Model&#8211;based approaches help not only in effective quality assurance, but help also to evaluate and control the coverage, costs, and risks related to the testing efforts&#046; Both – the effectiveness and the efficiency of testing – can be handled by model&#8211;based approaches within integrated system and test development for software&#8211;intense systems&#046; Currently, model&#8211;based testing considers selected aspects of system models in isolation, e&#046;g&#046; structural or behavioural models&#046; This means that the methods are of limited applicability and that they also do not scale with respect to the size and conceptual complexity of real systems&#046; The Testing Workshop at ECMDA seeks to provide answers to the many open issues related to model&#8211;driven testing&#046; </FONT></SPAN></P> <P><B>Keywords:</B> </P> <P class=style8><SPAN class=style17><STRONG>· </STRONG></SPAN>Innovative model&#8211;based approaches to design and define test specifications<BR><SPAN class=style11><SPAN class=style17><STRONG>· </STRONG></SPAN></SPAN>Test languages and methodologies (e&#046;g&#046; TTCN&#8211;3, UML2 testing profile)<BR><SPAN class=style11><SPAN class=style17><STRONG>· </STRONG></SPAN></SPAN>Guidelines for model&#8211;based testing<BR><SPAN class=style11><SPAN class=style17><STRONG>· </STRONG></SPAN></SPAN>Model&#8211;based approaches for component, integration and system testing<BR><SPAN class=style8><SPAN class=style11><SPAN class=style17><STRONG>· </STRONG></SPAN></SPAN>Executable test models and simulation<BR></SPAN><SPAN class=style8><SPAN class=style11><SPAN class=style17><STRONG>· </STRONG></SPAN></SPAN>Derivation of test models from system models<BR></SPAN><SPAN class=style8><SPAN class=style11><SPAN class=style17><STRONG>· </STRONG></SPAN></SPAN>Validation of test models<BR></SPAN><SPAN class=style8><SPAN class=style11><SPAN class=style17><STRONG>· </STRONG></SPAN></SPAN>Test models for non&#8211;functional quality properties (e&#046;g&#046; reliability, safety, performance)<BR></SPAN><SPAN class=style8><SPAN class=style11><SPAN class=style17><STRONG>· </STRONG></SPAN></SPAN>Optimization of test sets<BR></SPAN><SPAN class=style8><SPAN class=style11><SPAN class=style17><STRONG>· </STRONG></SPAN></SPAN>Cost and economic impact of model&#8211;based testing<BR></SPAN><SPAN class=style8><SPAN class=style11><SPAN class=style17><STRONG>· </STRONG></SPAN></SPAN>Tool automation and tool support<BR></SPAN><SPAN class=style8><SPAN class=style11><SPAN class=style17><STRONG>· </STRONG></SPAN></SPAN>Experience reports from related case studies in various domains</SPAN></P>
