We start with the big picture, then we break it into the small chunks. That way our progress is more predictable, the business can plan more effectively.

Are you creating also those upper level test cases? Interesting stuff :)

You could try to write a kind of stub which would consume the middle layer and by feeding into this stub for your various input conditions, you get to create a reusable testing framework!!!

This project reminds me of one I worked on. I worked on a testing project with similar kinds of tests for an IRA transaction-processing system that contained some interesting lessons learned I'll share with you. The approach we took (after looking at the test cases the client put together on their own), was to analyze what combinations of values they covered, which ones they missed, and how their coverage results and testing efficiency might have changed had they used a pairwise / combinatorial test case generating tool like Hexawise. - Justin (Founder of Hexawise) Lisa,
