Abstract :
A frequent problem in software industry is the hard effort required for specifying functional tests. The time spent in this activity is increasing due to the complexity of the actual demanding software, becoming more hard and costly the creation and maintenance of these specifications manually. This paper presents a method which applies reuse techniques during tests specification, aiming at reducing the required effort during this task in the software development life cycle.
