Description
Summary:High-quality software tends to be expensive to develop and maintain because it is used in social infrastructures. In previous studies, a description format for requirement specifications was defined in a form that can be handled by machines, and customers were asked to describe their requirement specifications using this description format. However, a method for generating test cases from natural language documents has not been developed. We proposed a method to automatically generate test cases for system tests from requirement specifications. We applied this method to various system specifications and confirmed its usefulness. As a result, sufficient accuracy was obtained, confirming the usefulness of the proposed method. We also applied the proposed method to large-scale communication node software and clarified the specification-dependent characteristics of the proposed method.
