Abstract

See full text

The method is for testing classes of an object oriented program available for the first time. Classes are tested in that the tester interactively inputs test commands with which method calls are possible. The checking of the test results is likewise possible in interactive fashion. The testability is achieved in that the required call parameters are calculated in advance for all methods allowed in the class and in that precautions are undertaken in the computer memory in order to store and modify the possible parameters. The advantages are that testing can be interactively carried out and not that the test program must be corrected, translated and linked again after the test evaluation in a time-consuming fashion. The method is advantageously utilized in the development of communications software.
