Model-based GUI testing (MGT) is emerging as a promising approach for testing applications with a graphical user interface (GUI). Currently, test models in MGT approaches are close to the GUI implementation with limited ability to represent abstract actions. This paper introduces the Action-Event Framework (AEF), a MGT framework. This framework helps testers abstract away from low-level details...

But merely developing secure code without attesting to its assurance capabilities is akin to operating an automobile without checking to ensure that the brakes work as expected. With such an outlook, a crash becomes not just possible but inevitable. This ...
