Generating Test Cases using Eclipse Environment – A Case Study of Mobile Application

Abstract

In Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), there are four phases involved. They are analysis, design, implement and testing. Testing is done to ensure the functionalities of the system are correct. There are many approaches to software testing. It is usually divided into two approaches: manual testing or automatic testing. However, these days, with the rapidly advanced technology, performing software testing manually has become hugely laborious but still doable. Therefore, experts of the software development field are beginning to go for automatic testing. This paper presents a case study of mobile application and discusses how test cases can be generated automatically from the application using different automatic tools. Three software testing tools have been used to generate test cases automatically. The results from generating test cases automatically from these three tools are then being compared together with the results of generating test cases using manual testing technique.
