Automation in Software Testing for Military Information Systems

Abstract : Software testing must be definable, measurable, consistent, and objective to be a repeatable process. This paper examines the components of the testing process, including software, hardware, the human element, and the data-collection process. It also includes a case study in test automation derived from the Defense Information Infrastructure Common Operating Environment (DII COE). A reduction in the number of human-controlled steps in the software process significantly improved test results during this case study. Automation was successful because the many different components of software were tested for compliance to a well-defined standard. Automation was straight-forward because the test methodology did not require any specific assumptions about the software tested.
