Abstract:
Software testing processes have become more common in industry. Companies are investing on the definition and the formalization of their test processes and, in this context,
Model-Based Testing (MBT) appears as an interesting testing technique. However, industrial adoption of MBT remains low and researchers are also focusing on how to beat the barriers to wide adoption. Processes and results move the business world so, MBT processes must be adaptable to actual testing processes. For this, experiments to evaluate the results achieved with its use must be conduct. In this work, measurement models based on the Goal Question Metric methodology are proposed. The purpose is evaluating the use of MBT without increasing actual testing process costs. The models focus on aspects as effort, testable requirements coverage, modified test cases, failures, among others. The models are not associated with the MBT process presented. They can be applied with any process that allows metrics collection. In order to validate the measurement models, case studies were conducted into Motorola testing environment.
