Abstract:
A method for testing a user interface includes determining states and state transitions associated with the user interface. A first plurality of states and a first plurality of state transitions of the user interface may be explored. A subset of a second plurality of states and a second plurality of state transitions of the user interface may also be explored. Paths that lead to cycles within the subset of the second plurality of states and the second plurality of state transitions may be penalized.
