Title
Automatic generation of UML sequence diagrams from test counterexamples.
Abstract
Software testing activities involve two main challenges: the first is the design of test cases that will reveal failures; the second is the debugging of the software under test to identify and remove the source of the revealed failures. While a lot of effort from the research community is put in the former, the latter does not seem to attract the same amount of interest from academia, which we could say, in a way, means disregarding half of the quality software building process. In this paper, we present a methodology --and tool support-- to automatically transform test counterexamples, as produced by test automation tools like QuickCheck, into UML sequence diagrams. These are intended to ease debugging, and improve both documentation and communication between stakeholders of the software development process.
