    Salient Features

    • Mathematical approach followed to describe a wide range of simple to complex techniques for test generation.
    • Detailed treatment of topics such as test generation from finite state models, combinatorial designs and test selection and minimization for regression testing.
    • Test adequacy assessment using criteria mandated by the FAA and other agencies; data-flow based adequacy and mutation-based adequacy which are the most powerful of the available test adequacy criteria.
    • Step-by-step algorithms to generate tests.
    • Comparative analyses of commercially available testing tools to facilitate tool selection.
