Özet:Software product lines (SPL) aim to decrease the total software development cost by the help of reusability and variability. However, the increasing number of variations for the delivery types of products would result in increasing cost of the verification and validation process. Total testing cost of development can also be decreased by reusing test cases and scripts. The main objective of this study is to increase testing effectiveness while minimizing testing effort. Four different cases consisting of Aselsan’s SPL projects have been studied. Firstly, FIG Basis path method was applied at the functional testing phase, and an increase on the testing effectiveness value has been observed. FIG basis path method is a test case sequence generation technique using the feature tree of the software component. This method would be preferable to improve testing effectiveness on the functional verification phase. The second study was on testing effort estimation. There are two testing approaches for SPL projects, namely infrastructure based and product focused testing. These two techniques have been compared in terms of testing effort. It was a study that gives an idea to test managers about the selection of the proper testing technique. Thirdly, reusability techniques were evaluated. Reusability of testing artifacts can be used to decrease the total testing effort. Two reusability techniques for testing artifacts were compared in terms of the number of test cases. Proper technique would be chosen to decrease testing effort. Finally, selection of a reference application on platform tests was proposed and software products were grouped according to the redundancy values. Then, testing effectiveness values were evaluated for each test grouping.
