TEST PROCEDURE GENERATING DEVICE, TEST PROCEDURE GENERATING METHOD, TEST PROCEDURE GENERATOR AND RECORDING MEDIUM

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a test procedure generating device for improving program development efficiency. PSOLUTION: The test procedure generating device is provided with an operation flow storing part 3 storing an operation flow defining specifications of operation and transition between states based upon the operation, an operation flow analyzing part 4 analyzing the operation flow stored in the operation flow storing part 3, coordinating the transition from the first state to the second state with a node, generating a graph coordinating the transition between the states with a directed line segment, determining a deleting sequence of deleting nodes on the basis of a structure of the generated graph, simplifying the graph by deleting nodes in accordance with the deleting sequence, and generating a path equation indicating a sequence relationship of the transition from the first state to the second state by using the graph, a test procedure generating part 5 generating a test path conforming to the sequence relationship on the basis of the path equation, and a test procedure outputting part 6 outputting procedures for carrying out a test on the basis of the test path.
