CPT tutorial: #1 Introduction

Constrained Path-based Testing (CPT) tutorial - Part #1: Introduction. In the first video, we start with the context and the solved problem. It explains how traditional test design—based on manually created test scenarios—can be time-consuming, error-prone, and often ineffective, especially for complex systems. The video also shows why simply deriving tests by splitting the design documentation can lead to poor coverage and missed defects. It then presents model-based (automated) test design, in which system behaviour is captured by models (e.g., graphs) and test paths are automatically generated by specialized algorithms. Finally, the tutorial outlines the benefits and challenges of test design automation, which the CPT method will address in the follow-up videos. If you are not familiar with directed graphs, get the basic idea at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directed_graph A graph definition would suffice for the start.
