  1. Generations of Test Automation COMP551 Week 3 Dr Mark Utting marku@cs.waikato.ac.nz

  2. 1. Manual Testing • + easy & cheap to start • + flexible testing • expensive every execution • no auto regression testing • ad-hoc coverage • no coverage measurement

  3. 2. Capture-Replay Testing • + flexible testing • expensive first execution • + auto regression testing • - fragile tests break easily • ad-hoc coverage • no coverage measurement

  4. 3. Script-Based Testing • +/- test impl. = programming • + automatic execution • + auto regression testing • fragile tests break easily? • (depends on abstraction) • ad-hoc coverage • no coverage measurement

  5. 4. Keyword-Driven Testing • + abstract tests • + automatic execution • + auto regression testing • robust tests • ad-hoc coverage • no coverage measurement

  6. 5. Model-Based Testing + abstract tests + automatic execution + auto regression testing + auto design of tests + systematic coverage + measure coverage of model and requirements - modelling overhead
