Moreover, two key opinions are proposed for the test suite construction for GUI software, the first one is that the ˇ°Triple-step methodˇ± should be used for unit testing with the prior disposing of data boundary value testing of input controls, and another one is that the ˇ°Grey-box approachˇ± should be applied in integration testing for GUI software with necessary testing preparation in the precondition. At the same time, the testing of baseline version and the incremental testing should be considered for the test case construction to coordinate with the whole evolution of software product today. Additionally, all our opinion and thought are verified and tested with a typical case of GUI software—PQMS (Product Quality Monitoring Software/System), and results indicate that these methods and specific disposing are practical and effective. %K Test Suite Construction %K GUI Software %K Triple-Step Method %K Grey-Box Approach %K Guideline %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=125420
