TAXI is a tool for the systematic generation of XML instances. The TAXI methodology is largely inspired to the well-known Category Partition, which provides a stepwise intuitive approach to functional testing, as follows: identify the relevant input parameters; define the environment conditions; combine their significant values into an effective test suite. In order to reduce the number of combinations generated by Category Partition, TAXI also integrates a set of weighted test strategies.
