KerTheme: Testing Aspect Oriented Models
In: ECMDA workshop on Integration of Model Driven Development and Model Driven Testing., Bilbao, Spain.
Design validation is important for detecting errors early in the development
life cycle. Testing the design is one significant means to achieve
design validation. In this paper we introduce the KerTheme model.
KerTheme provides a means symmetrically decomposing concern based
executable class diagrams and concern test scenarios. KerTheme also
facilitates simultaneous merging of these decomposed models into
a coherent composite concern based executable class model and corresponding
test scenarios. The KerTheme model allows us to investigate weather
decomposed concern based executable class diagrams simplifies the
definition of concern test scenarios. This will also allow us to
investigate weather this approach ensures more rigorous testing of
a complete system.
