Model-based testing of software product lines

Due to the rising demand for individualised software products and software-intensive systems (e.g.,mobile phone or automotive software), organizations are faced with the challenge to provide a diversity of software systems at low costs, in short time, and with high quality. Software product line engineering is the approach for tackling this challenge and has proven its effectiveness in numerous industrial success stories, including Siemens, ABB, Boeing, Hewlett-Packard, Philips, and Bosch [Pohl et al. 2005]
