Hence the ability to ensure optimal test coverage of business processes is essential. Generation of smart test scenarios that covers the multiple paths of business logic is very crucial. Test case design constitutes a large part of testing cost. It is generally agreed that manual testing is becoming a bottleneck and is a frequent cause of project delays especially for large programs. Therefore, automatic test case design is essential to ensure the quality of large software products and to contain the rapidly growing testing costs.
