Abstract:
The emphasis of component system regression testing is retesting of the event interaction between updated components and other components in a system.A component system regression testing method based on a new component testing association model(CTAM)is proposed.First, the modification-affected component groups are identified by the impact analysis on CTAM, and each component in this group is assigned with an influence degree.Then, previous test cases are selected according to the influence degree, to generate the minimal regression test suite.Compared with traditional methods, CTAM is derived from the statistic on the interactive events that occurred in previous test executions, and focuses on the complicated relationship between components, which is more applicable to the component system regression testing.
提出组件系统的回归测试重点是对更新组件与其他组件之间以事件为单位的交互重新测试.给出了一种基于新的组件测试关联模型(CTAM)的组件系统回归测试方法.首先对需要进行回归测试的组件群体进行波动分析, 得出群体中组件受系统改动的影响度, 然后根据影响度选择复用先前的测试用例, 生成最小回归测试用例集.与传统方法相比, 该模型建立在组件间交互事件统计信息的基础上, 分析了组件间的复杂关系, 更适用于组件系统的回归测试.
