Abstract

The paper describes design of test case sequences in a multi-function system testing process. Groups of system functions (function clusters) are considered. It is assumed a set of test cases for each function cluster is designed or selected. The problem is: compose a test case sequence for a chain of function clusters (selection of a test case for each function cluster). Our approach is based on multicriteria decision making and Numerical examples illustrate the materials.
