“…This enables purely structural mappings between instance-and component-related parts of the different models. Beyond the structural mappings, additional information on elements of the structural decomposition can be added to the Integration Model (see aspects concept in [26]).…”

“…In order to be able to map multiple models in the context of model-centric testing, the Execution Graph ++ (EGPP) metamodel was developed. In the context of Pröll et al [26] the metamodel simultaneously representing the structure, control flow and data flow information of a system, was introduced. Basically, the control flow information is described by nodes (EGPPNode) and edges (EGPPTransition).…”

The continuous improvement of the performance of computing units makes it possible to cope with increasingly complex tasks. This results in more complex software systems. However, the development of such highly complex systems is difficult to achieve using traditional approaches. Concepts like model-driven software development can weaken this problem in these constructive phases. However, new challenges arise for the testing of development artifacts. In order to be able to perform a real shift left of verification and validation tasks towards early phases of development, we present a semi-formal approach that enables users to execute test cases against the system under development (SUD) on the model-level. Grounded on an Integrated Model Basis which is created and maintained during development, test reports are automatically derived. This opens up a wide range of possibilities for early and targeted troubleshooting.

“…As already mentioned in the previous sections, it is desirable to lift the original model to an independent representation, which serves for internal analysis purposes. Therefore, we use the EGPP metamodel originally presented in prior work of Pröll et al as target meta model for processing (Pröll and Bauer, 2018a). It also represents a basic concept for the Architecture And Analysis Framework (A3F) prototype, carrying out the functionality presented throughout this contribution.…”

Over the last decades, systems immanent complexity has significantly increased. In order to cope with the emerging challenges during the development of such systems, modeling approaches become an indispensable part. While many process steps are applicable to the model-level, there are no sufficient realizations for test execution yet. As a result, we present a semi-formal approach enabling developers to perform abstract test execution straight on the modeled artifacts to support the overarching objective of a shift left of verification and validation tasks. Our concept challenges an abstract test case (derived from test model) against a system model utilizing an integrated set of domain-specific models, i.e. the omni model. Driven by an optimistic dataflow analysis based on a combined view of an abstract test case and its triggered system behavior, possible test verdicts are assigned. Based on a prototypical implementation of the concept, the proof of concept is demonstrated and further on put in the context of related research.
