“…In earlier study of a test case Prioritization consists of input and output value and expected result before testing. Although test-case execution should be successful, if some errors occur during execution, the output value cannot be obtained or compared with the expected result (Huang et al, 2010). …”

The fully automatic Graphical User Interface tool for any application using novel model based test suite generation techniques for a GUI. They are unable to control response time and time intervals are based on relationship between GUI events handlers and test cases with their responsibilities. We present a novel prioritization algorithm that enhances event handlers for the automated GUI tool. The proposed tool generates GUI events, it Captures and Playback event responses to automatic verification point of the results for the test cases which are written to a log file and corresponding report will be generated. This novel algorithm was able to detect new test suite and ordering of test cases to reduce a GUI fault integration defects. The number of faults detected for a single event are found after generating test cases for the application. The Average Percentage of Fault Detection (APFD) and charts has been used to show the effectiveness of proposed algorithm to find fault detection rate.

Abstract-Testing of GUI (Graphical User Interface) applications has many challenges due to its event driven nature and infinite input domain. It is very difficult for any programmer to test for each and every possible input. When test cases are generated using automated testing tool it uses each and every possible combination to generate test cases hence generates numerous number of test case for any GUI based application. Within a defined time frame it is not possible to test every test case, that is why test cases prioritization is required. Test-case prioritization has been widely proposed and used in recent years as it can improve the rate of fault detection during the testing phase. Very few methods are defined for GUI Test case prioritization that usually consider single criteria for assigning priority for the test case which is not sufficient for the consideration of that test case as more fault revealing. In this paper we have proposed a method for assigning weight value on the basis of multiple factors as one of the criteria for test case prioritization for GUI based software. These factors are: The type of event, Event Interaction, and Parameter-value interaction coverage-based criteria. In the proposed approach priority is assigned based upon these factors using fuzzy logic model. Experimental results indicate that the proposed model is suitable for prioritizing the test cases of GUI based software.

Event-flow model is a GUI testing model that describes the immediate execution relationship between GUI events, while GUI is based on event-driven mode. To improve the relationship between GUI events, information to describe the interactive relationship between GUI events is added in the event-flow model. The interactive relationship is based on sharing variables or exchanging messages. Then, an algorithm is given to generate effective and interactive GUI test cases based on interactive event-flow model, and the result of an experiments shows that this method obviously reduced the number of GUI test cases.
