Industrial-Strength Model-Based Testing - State of the Art and Current Challenges
As of today, model-based testing (MBT) is considered as leading-edge technology in industry. We sketch the different MBT variants that - according to our experience - are currently applied in practice, with special emphasis on the avionic, railway and automotive domains. The key factors for successf...

The key factors for successful industrial-scale application of MBT are described, both from a scientific and a managerial point of view.
