Accelerating User Interface Testing Process with Genetic Algorithm

Model Based Testing (MBT) is a commonly used software testing technique. In this paper, we aim to shorten the test lengths and improve test process by adding a genetic algorithm to a open source, model based testing tool, GraphWalker. We applied our genetic algorithm on testing Graphical User Interface of a banking application. We compared our genetic algorithm and algorithms of GraphWalker and show that genetic algorithm speeds up the test process by 45%.
