New
add-in supports Design-Driven Testing
ICONIX and Sparx Systems
have collaborated on the production of a new release of the Agile/ICONIX Add-In
that extends the functionality of Enterprise Architect to support Design-Driven
Testing (DDT).
Originally conceived
during the writing of “Agile
Development with ICONIX Process” and explained at a high level in “Use Case Driven Object Modeling with
UML”, DDT (also known as ICONIX
Process for Test) will be described more completely in an upcoming book by
Doug Rosenberg and Matt Stephens.
The Agile/ICONIX add-in
can automatically generate test cases for Requirements, for “controllers” on
Robustness Diagrams, and for messages on Sequence Diagrams.
In addition to
model-driven test case generation, the add in includes transforms between test
cases and test classes. Transforms exist for widely used unit testing
frameworks JUnit (for Java) and NUnit (for .Net).

Once the test cases have been transformed to
test classes, they can be code-generated, using Enterprise Architect’s standard
code-generation techniques.
