面向对象程序回归测试策略研究

An Regression Testing Strategy for Testing Object-Oriented Programs

1 引言软件测试的基本过程是从单元测试、集成测试、有效性测试到系统测试。一般地说,回归测试属于软件维护的过程,当软件修改之后,回归测试用于确认修改的正确性,包括修改本身的正确性和未修改的部分未受到因修改而导致的不正确影响。

This paper puts forward an regression testing strategy for testing object-oriented programs based on data-flows. The basic idea is that by focusing on data aspect of the object system, relative data flows are combined to generate test path along which computation effect may be propagated to some suitable checkpoints. Errors are more likely detected based on such stuategy. Problem of limited controllability and observability in the tested system is more easily resolved. At the end, the basic method of regression test set generation is formed.
