This paper presents a method of component testing based on algebraic specifications. An algorithm for generating checkable test cases is proposed. A proto-type testing tool called CASCAT for testing Java En-terprise Beans is developed. It has the advantages of high degree of automation, which include test case generation, test harness construction and test result checking. It achieves scalability by allowing incre-mental integration. It also allows testing to focus on a subset of used functions and key properties, thus suit-able for component testing. The paper also reports an experimental evaluation of the method and the tool.
