4. ting is an iteration with 2 characters naming A and B 2 1 2 Iterations The iterations option applies particular number of production rules for all the regular expressions If the option is set at 10 then the 10th iteration step of all the regular expression after applying 10 production rules will be outputted 2 1 3 Iterations Up to and including The iterations up to and including option sets how many strings or more specific regular expressions are generated from each regular expression The default setting is up to and including 100 iterations which means that the output result would yield the first 100 strings generated by applying production rules on each regular expression For example for gt A B strings would be A B AB BA AAB ABB BAA BBA up to the strings having 100 characters 2 1 4 String Length To generate strings with specific string length the Set string length option could be used This option sets the output string length to the chosen number The desired string length can be selected which results in the output strings to all be of the chosen length on the selected set of alphabets The default setting is to leave the option unselected and the output would include strings with variety of lengths 2 1 5 Length Up to and including The Up to and including checkbox sets the output to being all the strings up to and including the chosen length If the option is set to be Up
5. to and including 10 then the output strings will range in length from 1 to 10 characters long 2 1 6 Results The Limit number of strings to textbox limits the total number of strings that will be produced by the program The default setting is to leave Limit number of results to unselected 2 2 Output Files The output files can be found in the folder Categorization Tests 2 1 1 Output File Format The output is in the CSV format being suitable for using in GWM tool support for testing At each use of this test generator tool one CSV file is created which is separated into files by iteration length or only by using specific regular expression based on your selected options Separating the files by iteration This choice stores all the strings produced in a given iteration in one file The default setting is for the files to be separated by iteration Separating the files by length This choice stores all the strings produced by a given length in one file Separating the files by regular expression This choice stores all the strings following a given regular expression in one file The output files will be stored in a folder called Categorization Tests If the files are separated by length then the name of the CSV file would be Length followed by a number which is the length of the strings in the file If the files are separated by iteration step then the CSV files will be named Iteration followed b
