Test scenarios generation for a class of processes defined in the BPEL language

The main purpose of this research is adaptation of critical paths method [1] to the processes defined in BPEL. The critical path method is the specification based and simulation oriented method. In the paper it is show that under some assumptions the BPEL process may be considered as an embedded system, in which tasks are like services and communication between tasks is like coordination of the services according to the task graph of the system. An example is given where a set of test scenarios is presented.
