Abstract

Real time systems are not stand alone. Some are under development, some are built from the scratch, some use and share third party APIs, sdks, services, signals, infrastructure, platform and resources. Hence until a software reaches its end of life, it consistently continues to evolve, adapting to the changes in terms of requirements, technologies, new concepts that are outcomes of various research. At times a part of the system is adapted or morphed or new one is built on the existing codebase. The test methodologies are extended to support such systems. The study aims to bring out (i) impacted areas based on changes in the entity and (ii) feasibility of leveraging user stories to generate testcase stories that can be used for testing of systems that are constantly evolving.
