Furthermore, if transformations were to be developed by adopting a model-based approach, they might benefit from the promised advantages of MDE in terms of a less costly software development while reducing the inherent complexity of coding them. Bearing these ideas in mind, in previous works we have introduced MeTAGeM-Trace, an EMF-based toolkit for the MDD of model transformations which supports trace generation. However, automation might have a negative impact on the quality of the products generated. To assess whether this is actually the case with MeTAGeM-Trace, this work presents the principal results of an experiment in which the quality of model transformations developed in different manners, including the use of MeTAGeM-Trace, are compared with the aim of evaluating the impact of automation and trace-enabling on the quality of model transformations.","PeriodicalId":317037,"journal":{"name":"2014 9th International Conference on the Quality of Information and Communications Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128633347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Foreword of the Thematic Track: Quality in Model Driven Engineering 专题报告前言:模型驱动工程中的质量

{"title":"Foreword of the Thematic Track: Quality in Model Driven Engineering","authors":"M. Mernik","doi":"10.1109/QUATIC.2014.57","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/QUATIC.2014.57","url":null,"abstract":"ODEL-driven engineering (MDE) refers to a range of approaches where models play a core role in software development. Modeling promotes reasoning at higher level of abstraction, therefore reducing complexity of software development, while hiding the unnecessary low level details at appropriate stages, and promoting communication among the several stakeholders in the development process. MDE initiatives make claims of increased quality and productivity by separating business and application logic from underlying platform technology, transforming models to other models and automating code generation. However, while quality assurance is a well-known topic in “traditional” Software Engineering, less is known on how to assess quality across the MDE lifecycle. We should understand not only how to measure the quality of the MDE process (and determine if it is better than other approaches), but also to understand the quality of the models themselves (determining metrics for both models and metamodels’ quality, design patterns, and anti-patterns). All aspects of research related to Quality of Model-Driven Engineering have been considered including both theoretical and empirical work. To widely distributed call for papers sixteen papers were originally submitted to QMDE at QUATIC 2014. Finally, six papers were selected for an acceptance rate of 37.5%.","PeriodicalId":317037,"journal":{"name":"2014 9th International Conference on the Quality of Information and Communications Technology","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114261798","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

XACML is the de facto standard for storing and deploying access control policies. However, due to the complexity of the XACML language, policy definition becomes a difficult and error prone process. In recent years, the combined use of models for the access control policy specification, and the model-to-code facilities, for the automatic transformation of the model into the XACML language, has been proposed as a possible solution. These model-driven methodologies and facilities need to be thoroughly validated and verified. In this paper we provide an integrated framework for testing the automatic translation of the specification of an access control model into an XACML policy. The framework includes different test strategies for the derivation of test cases and some facilities for making easier their execution against the XACML policy and the test results collection and analysis. In addition, we illustrate the use of the framework on a case study.","PeriodicalId":317037,"journal":{"name":"2014 9th International Conference on the Quality of Information and Communications Technology","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133098740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Test Process Improvement with Documentation Driven Integration Testing 用文档驱动的集成测试改进测试过程

Breu","doi":"10.1109/QUATIC.2014.29","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/QUATIC.2014.29","url":null,"abstract":"Improving the maturity of the test process in an organization, especially but not limited to integration testing, involves obstacles and risks, such as the additional work overhead of the new process. In addition, integration testing descriptions are often too technical not addressing the language needs of the domain. In research cooperations with companies from the insurance and banking domain it turned out that test descriptions and reports are one of the most useful testing artifacts, while doing adhoc testing. This paper presents a bottom up testing approach, which first helps the integration tester in producing a semi-formal test description and report, up to be an enabler for automatic model-based testing in the very end. The presented approach is based on a textual domain specific language that is able to evolve over time. This is done by analyzing the test descriptions and reports automatically with machine learning techniques as well as manually by integration testers. Often recurring test steps or used components are integrated into the test language, making it specially tailored for a specific organization. For each test step implementations can be attached, preparing it for the next iteration. In this paper the methodology and architecture of our integration testing approach are presented together with the underlying language concepts.","PeriodicalId":317037,"journal":{"name":"2014 9th International Conference on the Quality of Information and Communications Technology","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126395422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specially, NLP techniques, such as morphosyntactic analysis and semantic textual similarity, are used in the retrieval phase of the CBR system.
