Model-driven development has become the most important new paradigm in
software development and has already demonstrated considerable impact in
reducing time to market and improving product quality. However, the
development of high-quality systems not only requires systematic
development processes but also systematic test processes. This book is
about systematic, model-driven test processes in the context of UML. As
UML provides only limited means for the design and development of test
artifacts, a consortium was formed by the Object Management Group (OMG)
to develop a UML profile for model-driven testing – the UML Testing
Profile (UTP), an official OMG standard since 2005. Written by the
original members of this standardization group, this book shows you how
to use UML to test complex software systems. The authors introduce UTP
step-by-step, using a case study that illustrates how UTP can be used
for test modeling and test specification. You’ll learn how UTP concepts
can be used for functional and non-functional testing, with example
applications and best practices for user-interfaces and service oriented
architectures. In addition, the authors demonstrate how to apply UTP
using frameworks like TTCN-3 and the JUnit test framework for Java. This
book is the definitive reference for the only UML-based test
specification language, written by the creators of that language. It is
supported by an Internet site that provides information on the latest
tools and uses of the profile.
