Practical application of MC/DC for speci cationbased testing has its own unique features and is sometimes quite di erent from codebased applications. However, MC/DC as a black-box approach has not been studied su ciently, and thus, the application of MC/DC for speci cation coverage was the main research problem considered in this thesis. The goal of this study was to analyze MC/DC as a black-box technique, investigate factors that distinguish black- and white-box applications of this approach, and provide proper de nitions and rules with a prototype implementation to evaluate the MC/DC level during black-box testing.application/pdfenMC/DCComputer software--TestingMaster's Thesis2018-05-23
