One of the main drawbacks of the IoT systems is the amount of information they have to handle. This information arrives as events that need to be processed in real time in order to make correct decisions. As a consequence, new ways (tools, devices, mechanisms...) of obtaining, processing and transmitting information have to be put into action. It is worth mentioning the “Event Processing Languages” (EPL), which were created to detect, in real time, interesting situations in a particular domain. These languages use patterns to filter the information. A huge amount of data is processed and analysed by EPLs, so any programmer error could seriously affect the outcome because of a poor decision making system. Given that processing the data is crucial, testing and analysing programs which run any EPL language is required. The most common mistakes that programmers could make have to be detected. A large number of events with specific values and structures are needed to apply any kind of testing in programs which use EPL. As this is a very hard task and very prone to error if done by hand, a method is presented, which addresses the automated generation of events. This method includes a general definition of what is an event type and its representation is proposed. Additionally, IoT-TEG event generator is developed based on this definition. Results from experiments and real-world tests show that the developed method meets the demanded requirements.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="m_7121243993624520798gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Luca Rossi</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Lecturer in Computer Science</div><div dir="ltr">School of Engineering and Applied Science</div><div dir="ltr">Aston University</div><div dir="ltr">Web: <a href="http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~rossil/" target="_blank">http://www.cs.aston.ac.<wbr>uk/~rossil/</a></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
