Unit Tests of Software in a University Environment

Abstract

Abstract: Quality is a necessary feature to be achieved by a system or application after its development is completed. Tests contribute to software quality, but testing is a process that requires much time. This process starts at the beginning of the construction of a system and ends before the implementation. This paper presents an analysis of a set of tools for automatic test execution, with emphasis on unit testing, and describes a proposal of using such tools in a university environment of project development. This proposal responds to the need of combining commercial tools with other path generation tools and test cases.
