Model Based Testing - Open Questions

1. Can the derived model be extended to other domains?
2. Can it accommodate the changes at the development pace ruled by schedules?
3. How will the changes be incorporated and when, where, who and which process will govern them?
4. How will the test versions or the auto generated tests be maintained across releases?
5. Measurements, metrics and evaluations. How will they drill down to requirements?
6. How will the extra manually added testcases be maintained? What will be the carelessness Index on the same?
7. Evolution of MBT specific processes. How will they sustain with the present development models, especially agile?
8. How will MBT address the defect tracking activity?
9. Will the metrics derived from this approach, uncover the gaps in the test activities?
10. Finally, it would require a considerable investment in building the infrastructure that serves as an oracle for test generation. Will the stakeholders be ready to spend?

Model based Testing (MBT) - Model Definition

Bernhard Rumpe - Model-based Testing of Object-Oriented Systems

§Model is defined as a coherent piece of information, denoted in a diagrammatic or textual notation that describes an abstraction of the desired system.

§Multiple models can describe various aspects of the system. There can sub-models, as is the case with test models

Dias Neto, A.C.; Subramanyan, R.; Vieira, M. Travassos, G.H.

§Model describing the system under test is usually an abstract, partial presentation of the system under test's desired behaviour. This will form the abstract suite from which an executable suite can be derived. This can also be used as a test generator
