A Method For Requirement Test In MDA

To improve the development method, in this thesis CIM (Computation Independent Model) in the MDA (Model Driven Architecture) uses a more abstract model of requirement than ever. Based on it, a process of requirement test is given in this thesis. And requirement test has become an important aspect of software test since then.To run a requirement test, we have to obtain a requirement model first. In this thesis we adopt a form-driven approach to obtain requirement models in the project. The requirements are divided into functional and non-functional requirements to be acquired and described separately using use cases and table templates. Based on requirement models, a process and the algorithm of functional requirement test are given in this thesis. Test cases and sequence diagrams are obtained from requirement models, and then we get sequences of events from sequence diagrams, after this we run a test by putting test cases into sequences of events. For non-functional requirement we mainly quantify them and make it measurable standard. Using this method we can advance requirement test to software design phase. Compared to previous running requirement test after software implementation, this method greatly reduces the risk of software development.
