Model Based Testing Essentials Guide To The Istqb Certified Model Based Tester

Provides a practical and comprehensive introduction to the key aspects of model-based testing as taught in the ISTQB® Model-Based Tester—Foundation Level Certification Syllabus This book covers the essentials of Model-Based Testing (MBT) needed to pass the ISTQB® Foundation Level Model-Based Tester Certification. The text begins with an introduction to MBT, covering both the benefits and the limitations of MBT. The authors review the various approaches to model-based testing, explaining the fundamental processes in MBT, the different modeling languages used, common good modeling practices, and the typical mistakes and pitfalls. The book explains the specifics of MBT test implementation, the dependencies on modeling and test generation activities, and the steps required to automate the generated test cases. The text discusses the introduction of MBT in a company, presenting metrics to measure success and good practices to apply. Provides case studies illustrating different approaches to Model-Based Testing Includes in-text exercises to encourage readers to practice modeling and test generation activities Contains appendices with solutions to the in-text exercises, a short quiz to test readers, along with additional information Model-Based Testing Essentials – Guide to the ISTQB® Certified Model-Based Tester – Foundation Level is written primarily for participants of the ISTQB® Certification: software engineers, test engineers, software developers, and anybody else involved in software quality assurance. This book can also be used for anyone who wants a deeper understanding of software testing and of the use of models for test generation.

In his latest work, author Paul C Jorgensen takes his well-honed craftsman’s approach to mastering model-based testing (MBT). To be expert at MBT, a software tester has to understand it as a craft rather than an art. This means a tester should have deep knowledge of the underlying subject and be well practiced in carrying out modeling and testing techniques. Judgment is needed, as well as an understanding of MBT the tools. The first part of the book helps testers in developing that judgment. It starts with an overview of MBT and follows with an in-depth treatment of nine different testing models with a chapter dedicated to each model. These chapters are tied together by a pair of examples: a simple insurance premium calculation and an event-driven system that describes a garage door controller. The book shows how simpler models—flowcharts, decision tables, and UML Activity charts—express the important aspects of the insurance premium problem. It also shows how transition-based models—finite state machines, Petri nets, and statecharts—are necessary for the garage door controller but are overkill for the insurance premium problem. Each chapter describes the extent to which a model can support MBT. The second part of the book gives testers a greater understanding of MBT tools. It examines six commercial MBT products, presents the salient features of each product, and demonstrates using the product on the insurance premium and the garage door controller problems. These chapters each conclude with advice on implementing MBT in an organization. The last chapter describes six Open Source tools to round out a tester’s knowledge of MBT. In addition, the book supports the International Software Testing Qualifications Board’s (ISTQB®) MBT syllabus for certification.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Tools and Methods for Program Analysis, TMPA 2017, Moscow, Russia, March 3-4, 2017. The 12 revised full papers and 5 revised short papers presented together with three abstracts of keynote talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 51 submissions. The papers deal with topics such as software test automation, static program analysis, verification, dynamic methods of program analysis, testing and analysis of parallel and distributed systems, testing and analysis of high-load and high-availability systems, analysis and verification of hardware and software systems, methods of building quality software, tools for software analysis, testing and verification.

Advances in Computers, Volume 108, the latest volume in a series published since 1960, presents detailed coverage of innovations in computer hardware, software, theory, design and applications. This book provides contributors with a medium in which they can explore subjects in greater depth and breadth than similar topics in journal articles allow. Provides in-depth surveys and tutorials on new computer technology Covers well-known authors and researchers in the field Presents extensive bibliographies with most chapters Includes volumes that are devoted to single themes or subfields of computer science

Concepts, methods, and techniques—supported with practical, real-world examples The first book to cover the ISTQB® Certified Test Automation Engineer syllabus With real-world project examples – Suitable as a textbook, as a reference book for ISTQB® training courses, and for self-study This book provides a complete overview of how to design test automation processes and integrate them into your organization or existing projects. It describes functional and technical strategies and goes into detail on the relevant concepts and best practices. The book's main focus is on functional system testing. Important new aspects of test automation, such as automated testing for mobile applications and service virtualization, are also addressed as prerequisites for creating complex but stable test processes. The text also covers the increase in quality and potential savings that test automation delivers. The book is fully compliant with the ISTQB® syllabus and, with its many explanatory examples, is equally suitable for preparation for certification, as a concise reference book for anyone who wants to acquire this essential skill, or for university-level study.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Tools and Methods of Program Analysis, TMPA 2021, held in Tomsk, Russia, during November 25–27, 2021.
