Step 01

Capture Requirement

Capture requirements via text, file upload (PDF, DOCX, TXT), image OCR or voice input. Paterion accepts any format and processes it immediately.

  • Multi-format import: PDF, DOCX, images, Markdown
  • AI-powered OCR for handwritten notes
  • Instant processing without pre-work
Capture Requirement
Step 02

Structogram & Decision Tree

Paterion analyzes requirement text with AI and auto-generates a Nassi-Shneiderman diagram with all control flow structures: actions, decisions, loops, parallel tasks.

  • Automatic generation from natural text
  • Editable with intelligent variable analysis
  • Cascading approval reset (EU AI Act compliant)
Structogram & Decision Tree
Step 03

Decision Table

All possible paths are extracted from the structogram and displayed as a decision table. Union mode for fast results, cartesian for MC/DC coverage.

  • Completeness and consistency checks automatic
  • Cartesian expansion for safety-critical systems
  • Background generation for large requirements
Decision Table
Step 04

Automatic Test Case Generation

Greedy set cover optimization generates the minimum number of test cases for complete path coverage. Primary and secondary tests with pagination for large suites.

  • Guaranteed C1 path coverage without manual work
  • Intelligently prioritized through greedy set cover
  • Infinite scroll for suites with 500+ test cases

AI-generated HTML mockups based on requirement, structogram, decision table and test cases. Optionally in SAP Fiori Horizon design.

  • Fully interactive HTML – no wireframing tool needed
  • SAP Fiori Horizon design available
  • Stakeholders can validate UI before development
