Abstract: Generation of Test cases in software testing is an important and a complex activity as it deals with diversified range of inputs. Fundamentally, test case generation is considered to be a multi-objective problem as it aims to cover many targets. Deriving test cases for the Web Applications has become critical to the most of the enterprises. In this paper, a solution for generating test cases for web applications is proposed; the solution uses the System Graph (consisting of links and data dependencies) considering that test cases were based on a combination of input values and data dependencies. Pairwise testing is used to derive the test cases to be executing from entire test cases and then a genetic algorithm is proposed to generate test cases specific to functional testing. The proposed approach was tested through two distinct experiments by measuring the code coverage at every generation and results show that genetic algorithm used increased the fitness value and code coverage. Overall, the results of the paper validate the proposed approach and algorithm, having potential in further construct an automated integrated solution for generating test cases for the entire process.

Keywords: Test case generation; genetic algorithm; multi objective optimization; pairwise testing; test optimization; fitness value
