An automate test case generation approach: using match technique

The paper studies the principle of test case reuse technique and put forward an automatically test case generation approach. The paper proposes standardized description of the test case firstly. The reusable test case is depicted in a way similar to the definition of software component. And then the interface of test case is defined using the analogous method of the description of facet in reusable software component. Based on these technique, an automate method of test case is presented. An algorithm of the mapping from case search to test case tree is given to fulfil the goal of reusing test case. Based on the architecture given in the paper, the software test case could be reused and generated automatically during the development of test case. The technology of test case generation could improve test efficiency and qualification.
