Abstract
The development and maintenance costs of the high-quality software tend to remain high because that will be used for social infrastructure. Previous studies formulated the description style of the requirements specification in a form with which a machine could deal and had customers use this style to describe the requirements specification. However, no method has been developed to generate test cases from natural language documents. We proposed the method for automatically generating the test cases of system testing from the requirement specification. We utilize this method for various system specifications. We confirmed usefulness of the proposed methods that obtain the sufficient accuracy. We also utilized proposed method for large scale communication node software and clarify the characteristics of the proposed method depends on the specification.
