Abstract
Estimation of the testing effort prepared on the early stage of software development process (e.g. in the design phase) could be a significant help for both project management and resources distribution optimization. We designed and implemented a tool, called IoTEAM, estimating time necessary to test the system, on the basis of its UML model (class and sequence diagrams). That tool is a unique combination of two methods: transformation from UML class and sequence diagrams to the results of Function Point Analysis and Test Point Analysis (TPA). The resulting approach can be used for estimation of time of the whole testing process – from unit tests to acceptance tests. Unfortunately, TPA was proposed almost twenty years ago, so is not consistent with contemporary quality standards. In this paper, we present how to incorporate ISO 25010 standard in TPA method.
