Model-Based GUI Testing Using UPPAAL at Novo Nordisk

This paper details a collaboration between Aalborg University and Novo Nordisk in developing an automatic model-based test generation tool for system testing of the graphical user interface of a medical device on an embedded platform. The tool takes as input an UML Statemachine model and generates a test suite satisfying some testing criterion, such as edge or state coverage, and converts the individual test case into a scripting language that can be automatically executed against the target. The tool has significantly reduced the Utile required for test construction and generation, and reduced the number of test scripts while increasing the coverage.
