The Art of Modelling: Test Approaches series from Curiosity Software – In this episode, Rich Jordan, considers how to avoid test bloat and the benefits of leveraging less static test assets and the traditional use of test management tools like Jira or Gherkin. Asking, how can you handle complexity and maintenance as time passes in Test Design?

Modelling Test Design

In this episode of the Art of Modelling: Test Approaches, Rich explores how to make Test Design less static and face into constant change through the use of pliable solutions offered by modelling flows, or model-based testing.

Model-based testing uses living elements to give feedback on the impact change is having and will have on a System Under Test. Model-based testing is an approach to software testing that utilizes models to guide and automate the creation of test cases.

Instead of writing test cases manually, model-based testing leverages graphical representations or formal notations to represent the intended behaviour or requirements of a system. These models serve as a blueprint for generating test cases and defining the expected outcomes.
