We think this could be useful for a course that is focused onsecurity testing but not for an introductory course on software testing.Garousi7 presents open modern software testing laboratory courseware that is similar to theone we report in this paper, but he uses several tools and SUTs. One of his findings is thattesting educators should align the choices of SUTs and tools with the ultimate goal of thecourse at hand, the type of students, and the time and resources available to the students inthe course.Other forays into improving the teaching of software testing have been reported.

Lectures are a necessary component in teaching a softwareengineering course to present concepts, principles, and technologies, which are necessary tounderstand the background of a development scenario. But they are not efficient indemonstrating what artifacts are to be generated under the given scenario and how to use CASEtools to generate them. The

A typical conversation an interviewer might have with a graduating student mightbe “well, yes I did a few use cases in my Software Requirements class, but no I have not doneone of that size nor do I understand how to use that model to drive analysis and test planning.”This paper presents an alternative approach underway at Arizona State University’s Polytechniccampus. In this approach, students are accelerated through the knowledge, comprehension,application levels through a hybrid teaching and learning model that combines multiplepedagogical approaches with a process-guided exposure to software engineering.1.

. If we were to trace this deficiency in software testing background back to its source, wewould end up at the educational institutions that are responsible for teaching and training peopleto test software. Thus, if today’s software testers are not sufficiently armed with the knowledgerequired to test software well, then it is most likely because they have not been adequatelytrained. This is one of the main root causes of the current state of software testing, and it ishere that we need to begin to remedy the problem.Current ApproachThe subject of software testing rarely appears in the undergraduate curricula, despite its wellestablished place in classical computer science (CS) literature 2 and its extensive use in industry.Many academic CS
