  • Patent number: 11994977
    Abstract: If an (i?1)-th test case which is a test case for step 1 to step (i?1) is stored, a generation control unit (130) selects a first generation scheme (M1) which uses the (i?1)-th test case to generate an i-th test case which is a test case for step 1 to step i. A test generation unit (170) generates a test case for executing an i-th step in a state where an internal state at an end of the (i?1) steps caused by execution for the (i?1)-th test case is retained, in accordance with the first generation scheme (M1). The test generation unit (170) generates the i-th test case by joining the (i?1)-th test case and the test case for the i-th step.
