Generation of test cases for end-user programmers is crucial to assure the correctness of their code. In this paper we investigate the automatic generation of test cases for programs that are written in Visual Basic for Applications and are used in MS Excel. We implement a metaheuristic search method to generate tests that achieve a satisfactory statement and branch coverage. Furthermore, in our methodology the code coverage is visualized. The generated test cases and the visualization enable end users to better understand the behavior of the programs and increase the probability of detecting errors when the code is changed at a later time.
