RSA
The audience:– Master students: 1st of 3 courses
• 1: Reliable Softare• 2: Reliable Architecture• 3: Project in RSA
– Diploma students: Perspektivfag
Consequence:– This course can stand alone.
The three courses
1: Reliable Software– High focus on application
• Theory for the purpose of supporting practice
– Large mandatory project• Includes software development in Java• Require tool support: Java, Ant, Junit
– Oriented quite a lot towards implementation level

The three courses
2: Reliable architecture– (Contents not fully defined yet)
– Theoretical• Research papers, book chapters, web resources• Reading, discussing, analyzing
– Doubtful if the mandatory project will include real development
• (on the other hand I would like to fire up 4 virtual machines on a virtual network and do something funny in VMWare )
DAIMI Henrik Bærbak Christensen 5
The three courses
3: Project– Contents defined by… you
– Typical• Apply some of the techniques and reflect
– Often inspired by work practice
• Dig deeper into peculiar topic– More papers, analyze, compare, reflect

This course
Reliability techniques– Testing
• at the various levels: unit, subsystem, system• the various techniques• tools: JUnit and EMMA
– Reviewing– ... and the context it is rooted in– Process and planning
DAIMI Henrik Bærbak Christensen 8
Mandatory Project
Two deliverables– Unit testing: [18th Sep]
• test case design based upon black-box and white-box testing techniques
• tool usage: JUnit and EMMA
– Integration testing (system testing?) [2nd Oct]• Integrate your unit with other groups

Course layout
The main elements– Seminars: I talk you to death; exercises; discussions– Week plan: Defines the course’s heartbeat– Mandatory project: Ensure your hearts beat
• Learning is doing...
Contact:– Me
• Tricky questions – If interesting than I will post a summary on web-site
• Process issues, exam, etc.• No forum this year…

Ilene Burnstein
Practical Software Testing– Reasonable discussion of central
techniques• a bit superficial from time to time
– Heavily focused on process• TMM is her invention
We will use it and “spice it up” with additional material...

[Demo]
– Schedule / week plan• Mandatory, cursory, optional
– Lessons and exercises
– anarchistic updating is my specialty...

Exam
Exam is a pass/fail exam. Dates are on Web.
It is an oral exam without preparation
Focus– terminology and concepts– ability to apply them on concrete small examples– combine and relate topics
