Abstract

Software testing is the most critical aspect of software development. For a successful software development and implementation adequate level of software testing is mandatory. Largely the efficiency of software testing depends upon the appropriate set of test cases. It means the a few test cases with maximum coverage in software testing. Manual test case generation requires lots of time and efforts and does not guarantee for completeness in test cases generated. It will increase the cost of software testing. In order to decrease the expenditure incurred in software testing, there is a need to find an automated tools with the use of computer and its software to develop or produce effective test data for maximum coverage of testing software system. In this paper we will categories various automatic test case generations and a comparative study of these.
