Abstract

The present invention provides a method and system for generating negative test input data. A set of attributes and a set of attribute properties can be extracted from a requirement specification. A constraint representation syntax can be framed from the extracted set of attribute properties. A structured diagram is modeled from the framed constraint representation syntax and a set of use cases, a set of path predicates can be constructed from the structured diagram. One or more attribute classes can be determined from the set of path predicates based on an attribute constraint and an attribute dependency. The negative test input data shall be generated from the one or more attribute classes using genetic algorithm.
