Software product line (SPL) has been proven to be a building block of software development paradigms for large-scale software development organizations not only because it provides cost-effective and reliable software products through reuse but also it provides an opportunity of mass customization. The main idea of SPL is to guarantee the reuse is achieved through forward-looking, systematic and not ad-hoc way, in contrast with single-system engineering in which generally the software is first constructed and then reuse is taken into account. The importance of software testing is a well-known concept for single-system development for decades. Likewise, it becomes a crucial term when SPL is taken into consideration. One of the fundamental testing techniques is unit testing in which software unit functionalities are tested. Currently, we are working on a method to develop unit tests considering complete reuse opportunity by applying model driven engineering techniques in SPL testing process. In addition, we plan to add a tool support to our method. In this talk, the details related to model driven engineering, SPL, and our method will be given.
