Model-based testing has been gaining attention among the software testing community for Functional Testing. With increasing use of UML methodologies, generating test cases from UML diagrams is being looked at as an attractive proposition. In this paper a systematic procedure is presented for functional test case generation from UML diagrams. Functional test cases are generated from UML Sequence diagrams and MC/DC test cases are generated from Activity diagrams, after Sequence and Activity diagrams are translated to corresponding XMI files. A case study is presented to illustrate the application of the method. The advantages of the proposed method with others are also discussed in details.
