Unified Test Environment-Integrated Platform for Bridging the Modeling, Testing and Code Development Flow

This study proposed the solutions of three problems. The first problem is that there is no unified platform to integrate various methodologies. The second problem is that UML tools need improvements for practical use. The third problem is that even if the developed code matches with requirement specs, there are bugs. This study provides an unified and integrated test environment (UTE) that can be used to combine various methodologies. UTE can remove the dummy test cases and make the test cases practically usable. TDD or other methods only focus on meeting the requirement specs. This study provides test cases for the missing specs.
