"Breaking the Glass – Improving Students’ White-Box Testing Competencies using Game-Design Elements"



Abstract: As the complexity and scale of software products continue to grow, software testing has become an increasingly crucial aspect of the software development process. Despite its importance, there is a significant discrepancy between students' interest in software development and the less tangible, yet critical tasks of testing and quality assessment, particularly in the area of white-box testing. Furthermore, persistent knowledge gaps in creating high-quality test cases contribute to industry-wide competency deficiencies. This study addresses these challenges by employing a design science research approach to implement a gamified learning system, with the aim of enhancing students' competencies to design high-quality test cases. This approach emphasises the rigorous verification practices for software products. Furthermore, insights from a field test further validate the effectiveness of the learning process of this gamified learning system.
