One of the main objectives of the ENACTEST project is to deliver a set of learning capsules. These capsules that serve as modules ready for integration as part of software testing courses and teaching materials aim to also address industry needs and skill gap in software testing education. In the project, RISE Research Institutes of Sweden provides a capsule on state-based automated testing that can be integrated into various software testing courses and professional trainings. The capsule is planned to enable activity-based learning for unit testing and automated state-based testing through a web-based code-testing playground.
The first version of the capsule is now made available to the public via GitHub (https://github.com/a66as/StateBasedTestCaseGeneration ).
The capsule additionally provides teaching material for teachers, students, and professionals (https://github.com/a66as/StateBasedTestCaseGeneration/tree/master/teaching%20materials).
The initial evaluation of the capsule showed that participants found it interesting and relevant. Results from the initial experiment also highlighted the effectiveness of state-based testing over manually written unit tests.
