Model-Based Test Driven Development of the Tefkat Model-Transformation Engine (original) (raw)

The paper presents the Model-Based Test Driven Development approach used for the Tefkat Model-Transformation Engine, emphasizing the importance of reliable model transformations within the Model-Driven Architecture (MDA). It highlights the challenges of testing model transformations due to their complexity compared to traditional systems and discusses the architecture and implementation of a test suite for a specific transformation language, XMorph. The results suggest that the test harness developed can serve as a foundational framework for future testing of model transformations.
