Abstract

Acceptance testing is formal testing conducted to determine whether or not a system satisfies its acceptance criteria and to enable the customer to determine whether or not to accept the system. An Acceptance Test Generator has been built in Oz that receives as input the formalized goal-based requirements of a system-to-be. In this framework, we motivate our choice of the Oz programming language.
