<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">Model-based testing (MBT) is an advanced testing technique that is becoming more and more popular in the software testing community. Several experience reports and success stories
have been presented and published so far. However, the capabilities and limitations of MBT still need to be understood and evaluated in order to adapt the approach in particular testing projects. The workshop on Quality of Model-Based Testing (QuoMBaT) addresses
a crucial need for discussing the quality characteristics of MBT approaches: How can or should the quality of a newly proposed approach be measured? How can existing approaches be compared? What is the fault-detection capability of an automatically generated
test suite compared to that of a manually produced one? Which kind of quality criteria is adequate?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">The objective of this second QuoMBaT workshop is to offer a forum for researchers and practitioners who are already working in this area or are interested in exploring MBT. Possible
topics include, but are not limited to:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">- MBT success and failure stories.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">- How can or should the quality of approaches, modeling languages, tools and test models be measured?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">- How should test cases be generated in order to ensure high quality?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">- What statements about SUT quality can be derived from test quality?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">- How can model-based testing be evaluated in comparison to other testing approaches?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">- What is the fault-detection capability of automatically generated tests compared to those of manually produced tests?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">- How can or should model-based testing be integrated into the development processes and accreditation?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">QuoMBaT is seeking two kinds of submissions: regular and short papers. All submitted contributions must be in ACM format (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates)
and contain original, unpublished work. We invite submissions on experience reports, approaches to measure MBT quality, and the above mentioned topics. The workshop proceedings will be published by ACM. Submission is possible via EasyChair (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=quombat13).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">Regular Papers: Up to 6 double-column pages, describing original work in the research and practice of model-based testing. Case studies, empirical research and experiments are particularly
welcome.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">Short Papers: Up to 3 double-column pages, describing research that has not yet produced the results required for a regular paper, but that deserves to be shared with the community
at an early stage due to its novelty and potential impact. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
