Quality of Automatically Generated Test Cases based on OCL Expressions

In this paper, we deal with coverage criteria for boundary testing. We focus on the automatic generation of boundary tests based on OCL expressions and evaluate the quality of these tests with established coverage criteria like MC/DC. We define and apply new coverage criteria, evaluate their efficiency via mutation testing, and substantiate all explanations by an example, part of a model of an elevator control.
