| - | ===== Course Objectives ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | <WRAP box round 95% center> | ||
| - | The course intends to provide to the students the basic knowledge and competences for testing complex software systems. The following topics will be covered: | ||
| - | * Software Testing generalities | ||
| - | * Software Testing phases | ||
| - | * Test derivation strategies | ||
| - | * Test adequacy assessment | ||
| - | The various conceptual aspects will be illustrated using examples and competences will be assessed with a course project that will require the usage of professional tools. | ||

| - | |||
| - | **Exam rules**: | ||
| - | |||
| - | The exam consist of two parts. | ||
| - | * Written test (2 h). On the exam date a written test takes place, it has a mixed structure: solution of exercises, and open/close answer questionnaire. | ||
| - | * Realisation of a project including the use of a software tool presented during the course. | ||
| - | * 1st. A <wrap em>Software Project</wrap> should be realized by students (it is possible to work in groups of 2) that will have to choose an open source software system (or possibly one made by them), and provide a complete test plan with artifacts. A report have to be delivered before the oral paper. | ||
| - | * 2nd. Finally the exam foresees an <wrap em>oral presentation</wrap> that can be performed in a date will be communicated by the teacher. | ||
| - | |||
| - | For the writting part the student gets a mark in the range 0 and 15, while for the project the student gets a mark in the range 0 and 18. The final mark results from the sum of the marks the student gets on the two parts. | ||
