  • Patent number: 7685468
    Abstract: A method and apparatus is described for generating a test case for an application or system modelled using a Stochastic Automata Network model. The method contemplates the inclusion of a plurality of automata and including the steps of: (a) setting an initial global state as the current global state, wherein a global state comprises a set of local states each corresponding to one of the automata; (b) creating a record of the initial global state; (c) selecting an event from a set of events that can be applied to the current global state; creating record of the selected event; (e) identifying those of the automata affected by the selected event and updating the current global state by updating the states of the affected automata; (f) creating a record of the current global state; and repeating steps (c) to (f) until a termination condition is satisfied. The invention may also be used for the generation of test scripts.
