Abstract
Object-oriented software engineering is becoming increasingly popular for system development, primarily due to the production of reusable components such as class libraries. Each time a component is reused, the issue arises as to how to verify or test the component in its new environment. A well tested component may require additional testing when it is reused, since errors may be introduced when it is placed in a new context. The foundation of an object-oriented system is the class structure, upon which program functionality is built. The class structure also constrains the objects stored in a database. Changes to the class structure can require significant maintenance of the persistent object store and existing programs, as well as significant retesting. Adaptive software describes a software model where functional components are developed with the intent of being flexible to changes in the class structure, allowing an adaptive program component to be reused with many clas...
