CCLI Type 2: Incorporating Software Testing into Multiple Computer Science and Software Engineering Undergraduate Courses

软件工程（34）本项目的重点是在计算机科学和软件工程本科教育的适当阶段教授软件测试原理和技术。初级编程课程介绍了基本技能，高级课程则涵盖了更高级的主题。它不仅鼓励学生在测试上投入更多的时间，从而产生更少错误的程序，而且还建立了正确的概念，并意识到测试实际上是编程过程中不可分割的一部分，而不是事后的一些想法，以临时的方式进行。该项目的一个重要创新是开发模块化的课程材料，而不是基于特定的测试技术或工具，而是根据软件测试的各个方面。课程和模块之间存在多对多的关系，因此教育材料可以以最低的侵入性和非限制性方式有选择地应用于任何适当的课程。这允许教师使用自己的判断力来确定每个模块的哪些部分适合学生。该项目为学生提供软件测试方面的适当培训，不仅针对那些选择软件测试作为职业的学生，而且针对那些可能从事软件开发任何方面工作的学生。它正在帮助大学培养一支受过良好教育和训练有素的劳动力队伍，这对软件行业的成功至关重要。

Software Engineering (34)This project is focusing on the teaching of software testing principles and techniques at appropriate stages of the undergraduate Computer Science and Software Engineering education. Basic skills are introduced in beginner programming courses, and more advanced topics are covered at the high level courses. It not only encourages students to invest more time in testing and consequently produce programs with fewer bugs, but also to establish a correct concept and realize that testing is actually an integral part of the programming process rather than some afterthought, conducted in an ad hoc manner. An important innovation of this project is the development of modularized course material that is not based on specific testing techniques or tools, but rather according to the various aspects of software testing. There is a many-to-many relationship between courses and modules such that educational material can be selectively applied to any appropriate course in a minimum intrusive and non-restrictive way. This allows instructors to use their own discretion to determine which parts of each module are appropriate for their students. This project is providing appropriate training in software testing to students, not only to those who choose software testing as a profession, but also to those who might work in any aspect of software development. It is helping universities produce a well educated and well trained workforce that is critical to the success of the software industry.
