abstract = "Test case generation based on Finite State Machines (FSMs) has
been extensively investigated due to its accuracy and simplicity.
Several test criteria have been proposed in the literature to
generate test cases based on FSMs. One of the oldest criteria is
the Switch Cover. As a main feature, the Switch Cover criterion
defines that all transition pairs of an FSM must be covered. The
classical Switch Cover algorithm converts the FSM into a graph
(known as Dual Graph); this graph is balanced, and, finally,
traversed based on an Eulerian Cycle algorithm. In this context,
considering the stage where an FSM is converted into a graph, this
study investigates other search algorithms on graphs, namely
Depth-First Search (DFS) and Breadth-First Search (BFS), for
generating test sets from a Dual Graph. We presented an
experimental study that compares the DFS, BFS algorithms with the
Eulerian Cycle. The study was conducted with a set of random and
real-world machines, taking into account the number of test cases,
the test suite size, the average length of sequences and
generation time.",
