This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 16201 “Synergies among Testing, Verification, and Repair for Concurrent Programs”. This seminar builds upon, and is inspired by, several past seminars on program testing, verification, repair and combinations thereof. These include Dagstuhl Seminar 13021 “Symbolic Methods in Testing”; Dagstuhl Seminar 13061 “Fault Prediction...

Mutation analysis is a powerful technique for testing software systems. The Mothra software testing project uses mutation analysis as the basis for an integrated software testing environment. Mutation analysis requires executing many slightly differing versions of the same program to evaluate the quality of the data used to test the program. The current version of Mothra includes a complete lan...

The problem of testing programs without test oracles is well known. A commonly used approach is to use special values in testing but this is often insufficient to ensure program correctness. This paper demonstrates the use of metamorphic testing to uncover faults in programs, which could not be detected by special test values. Metamorphic testing can be used as a complementary test method to sp...
