DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE & ENGINEERING
Department of Computer Science & Engineering, NIT, Rourkela was established in 1982. Since its inception, the Department is under dynamic progress and is able to establish the reputation for imparting quality education both at undergraduate and graduate programmes. The department has well equipped modern laboratories such as Software Engineering, Information Security & Data Communication, Image Processing & Cluster Computing and Advanced Database Engineering Labs for pursuing research keeping in view of the technological advancement.
 
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
A large number of software fails due to lack of proper testing. Testing is an important activity in the software development process. It takes maximum effort among all the phases. The objective of software testing is to identify all defects existing in the software product. Testing provides a practical way of reducing defects in a system & increasing the user’s confidence in a developed system.
Testing traditional software is relatively easy. But testing of OOPs is very difficult. Though the O-O features such as inheritance, polymorphism, dynamic binding etc. are the greatest strengths of OO software, but they pose special difficulties in the testing process. So, one has to give special attention while testing OO softwares.
In this workshop, the issues related with testing OO softwares will be highlighted. The recent trends in testing of OO software will be presented by eminent experts. Now-a-days, the testing of OO software is based on design documents such as UML diagrams, rather than the source codes, due to several advantages. So, in this workshop, various UML diagrams and their applications to testing of O-O software will be discussed. Besides this, the participants will be given hands on in O-O software testing using Magic Draw and TestComplete.
 
INVITED TALKS
Some invited talks will be delivered by experts from IIT, Kharagpur, faculty members of NIT, Rourkela, experts from other sister NITs and experts from industry.
