Search-based software test data generation using evolutionary computation
Search-based Software Engineering has been utilized for a number of software engineering activities. One area where Search-Based Software Engineering has seen much application is test data generation. Evolutionary testing designates the use of metaheuristic search methods for test case generation. The search space is the input domain of the test object, with each individual or potential solutio...
متن کاملSearch-based software test data generation for string data using program-specific search operators
This paper presents a novel approach to automatic software test data generation, where the test data is intended to cover program branches which depend on string predicates such as string equality, string ordering and regular expression matching. A search-based approach is assumed and some potential search operators and corresponding evaluation functions are assembled. Their performance is asse...
متن کاملSearch-based software test data generation: a survey
The use of metaheuristic search techniques for the automatic generation of test data has been a burgeoning interest for many researchers in recent years. Previous attempts to automate the test generation process have been limited, having been constrained by the size and complexity of software, and the basic fact that in general, test data generation is an undecidable problem. Metaheuristic sear...
متن کاملAdequate Test Data Generation Using Evolutionary Algorithms
Software Testing is a approach where different errors and bugs in the software are identified. To test a software we need the test data. In this thesis, we have developed the approach to generate test data automatically from some initial random test data using Evolutionary Algorithms (EA) and test the software to detect the presence of errors, if any. We have taken two measures, they are path c...
متن کاملUniversité De Montréal Automatic Test Data Generation Using Constraint Programming and Search Based Software Engineering Techniques
Proving that some software system corresponds to its specification or revealing hidden errors in its implementation is a time consuming and tedious testing process, accounting for 50% of the total software. Test-data generation is one of the most expensive parts of the software testing phase. Therefore, automating this task can significantly reduce software cost, development time, and time to m...
