Business Outcomes
The basic idea is to improve the quality and efficiency of
the test design and test implementation activities by:

• Designing a comprehensive MBT model, typically using tools, based on project test objectives.
• Providing a MBT model as a test design specification. This model includes a high degree of formal and
detailed information that is sufficient to automatically generate the test cases directly from the MBT model.

MBT and its artifacts are closely integrated with the processes of the organization as well as with the methods,
technical environments, tools, and any specific lifecycle processes.
