FUNCTIONAL TEST CASE GENERATION AND REDUNDANCY REMOVAL BASED ON MODEL DRIVEN TESTING USING UML ACTIVITY DIAGRAM

Software testing is that the primary activity to provide reliable software system. Irresponsible of a software system is incredibly abundant passionate about the means of testing performed. Software system testing that is sometimes last activity of the software system development cycle is performed below the pressure. Quality and irresponsible of software system area unit abundant passionate about take a look at ways that area unit dead by take a look at cases. Generation of optimized take a look at ways may be a difficult a part of the software system testing method. During this paper, a very important effort is formed to propose a brand new technique to get the optimized take a look at ways from UML sequence diagram. A tailored algorithmic rule known as as Firefly algorithmic rule is employed to induce the vital ways. Firefly algorithmic rule is met heuristic and impressed from flashing behavior of fireflies.
