| Abstract | (in Japanese) | (See Japanese page) |
| (in English) | In software testing, a protective measure to prevent faults in the code is to ensure that the behavior on the boundary between the sub-domains of the input space is correct. Therefore, designing test cases with boundary value analysis (BVA) can detect more errors and improve test efficiency. This paper presents a novel test set generation method used to semi-automatically generate test cases for software boundaries. In this paper, we combine test coverage and BVA to define a boundary coverage measurement, called Boundary Coverage Distance (BCD). In addition, based on BCD, we consider the optimal test case generation to minimize BCD under the random testing scheme. In the experiment, we exhibit the performance of our method by using seven real programs. We compare the fault detection capabilities of our proposed BCD- based approach with random testing (RT), adaptive random testing (ART), and concolic testing. Results indicate that the BCD-based method can generate test cases around the boundary. Compared with RT and ART, our proposed method can generate test cases that detect more faults. Also, the BCD-based method outperforms the concolic testing in three of the seven real programs tested. | |
