Semantics Guided Regression Test Cost Reduction
Software maintainers are faced with the task of regression testing: retesting a modified program on an often large number of test cases. The cost of regression testing can be reduced if the size of the program that must be retested is reduced and if old test cases and old test results can be reused. Tw o complimentary algorithms for reducing the cost of regression testing are presented. The fir...
متن کاملReducing the cost of regression testing by semantics guided test case selection
Software maintainers are faced with the task of regression testing: retesting a modified program on a (large) number of test cases. The cost of regression testing can be reduced if old test cases and old test results can be reused. Reuse avoids the costly construction of new test cases and the unproductive rerunning of existing test cases when it can be guaranteed that the modified and original...
متن کاملRegression Testing Cost Reduction Suite
The estimated cost of software maintenance exceeds 70 percent of total software costs [1], and large portion of this maintenance expenses is devoted to regression testing. Regression testing is an expensive and frequently executed maintenance activity used to revalidate the modified software. Any reduction in the cost of regression testing would help to reduce the software maintenance cost. Tes...
متن کاملTest Cost Constraint Reduction with Common Cost
Test cost is an important issue in cost-sensitive systems. It is what we pay for obtaining a data item of an object. In some applications, there are some common costs and a cost constraint. The common cost is due to the share of the same resources by several tests. The cost constraint is due to limited money, time, or other resources. Recently, the two issues have been addressed independently i...
متن کاملTest-cost-sensitive attribute reduction
In many data mining and machine learning applications, there are two objectives in the task of classification; one is decreasing the test cost, the other is improving the classification accuracy. Most existing research work focuses on the latter, with attribute reduction serving as an optional pre-processing stage to remove redundant attributes. In this paper, we point out that when tests must ...
