GraphWalker

GraphWalker is an Model-Based testing tool. It reads models in the shape of directed graphs, and generates [test] paths from these graphs.

A model can look like the one in the following image. The model is collection of arrows and nodes and together they create a graph.

Model
  • An arrow represents an action.
  • A node represents a verification.

What GraphWalker does

Given a model and a generator rule, GraphWalker by mathematical algorithms generates a path which corresponds to your test idea. This image illustrates such a result.

Then this path would be provided to the tool of your choice to execute the test.
In other words, GraphWalker is a test generation tool.
