An Automated Testing Framework for Statistical Testing of GUI Applications
It is known to be inherently more difficult and laborintensive to functionally test software applications that employ a graphical user interface front-end, due to the vast GUI input space. We propose an automated testing framework for functional and statistical testing of GUI-driven applications, using a combination of two rigorous software specification and testing methods and integrating them...
متن کاملCan urine dipstick testing for urinary tract infection at point of care reduce laboratory workload?
AIM The University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust microbiology laboratory receives 150 000 urine samples each year, approximately 80% of which prove to be culture negative. The aim of this study was to reduce the proportion of culture negative urines arriving in the laboratory, by producing local evidence based guidelines for the use of urine dipstick testing at point of care within the trust...
متن کاملHYPOTHESIS TESTING FOR AN EXCHANGEABLE NORMAL DISTRIBUTION
Consider an exchangeable normal vector with parameters ????2, and ?. On the basis of a vector observation some tests about these parameters are found and their properties are discussed. A simulation study for these tests and a few nonparametric tests are presented. Some advantages and disadvantages of these tests are discussed and a few applications are given.
متن کاملUrinary protein-to-creatinine ratio in pregnant women after dipstick testing: prospective observational study
BACKGROUND The dipstick test is widely used as a primary screening test for detection of significant proteinuria in pregnancy (SPIP). However, it often shows a false positive test result. This study was performed to determine which pregnant women should be recommended to undergo determination of urinary protein-to-creatinine ratio (mg/mg, P/Cr test) after dipstick test for confirmation of SPIP....
متن کاملShoulder injury reduction with post-offer testing.
OBJECTIVE This study is an interventional evaluation of a post-offer employment testing. The study is designed to determine if shoulder injury rates are lowered when employees are placed at jobs they demonstrate the physical ability to perform. METHODS A physical capacity evaluation based testing protocol was utilized to determine if each new employee had the physical work capacity to perform...
