An Analysis of Object Oriented Testing Techniques

摘要

In today's fast pace world, large scale system design is sought for, and to fulfill this need Object-oriented paradigm is the solution. It includes various distinguished features that are not involved in their conventional analogues. Example: Encapsulation, Polymorphism, Object instantiation, Persistence, Synchronization, Message Passing, Inheritance, and Dynamic Binding etc. Hence, Testing for such programs becomes even more tedious than that for stereotyped programs. In this paper we have discussed about the testing being carried out in the Object Oriented domain. In order to conform to this, several new methodologies have been proposed like Scenario based testing, Deep structural testing, Surface structure testing, and fault-based techniques.
