Class Ipog

java.lang.Object

de.rwth.swc.coffee4j.engine.generator.ipog.Ipog

public class Ipog
extends Object

An implementation of the popular IPOG algorithm. For given configuration it generates a test suite so that for each t-value-combination there is a test input containing it. This means IPOG create a t-way-testing suite. Some improvements from "An Efficient Design and Implementation of the In-Parameter-Order Algorithm" were used.

The algorithm was extended to offer support for constraints, dynamic parameter orders, and variable strength testing. To introduce parameter orders, the strategy pattern is used with ParameterOrder, and the same is done for variable strength testing via ParameterCombinationFactory.

Ipog

public Ipog(IpogConfiguration configuration)

Creates a new algorithm for the given configuration. After this, the generate() method can be used to generate the test suite satisfying the configuration.

Parameters:

configuration - information about what test suite should be generated by IPOG. Must not be null

Throws:

NullPointerException - if configuration is null
