The analysis of multimodal data comprised of images, videos and additional recordings, such as gaze trajectories, EEG, emotional states, and heart rate is presently only feasible with custom applications. Even exploring such data requires compilation of specific applications that suit a specific dataset only. This need for specific applications arises since all corresponding data are stored in ...

Complexity of modern web applications usually leads to low coverage of test cases which are designed manually. This paper proposes an evolutionary testing strategy that automatically synthesizes test cases for penetrating web applications, based on an initial set of data on user interaction sessions.

The combinatorial approach to software testing uses models, particularly an Orthogonal Array Testing Strategy (OATS) is proposed as a systematic, statistical way of testing pair-wise interactions to generate a minimal number of test inputs so that selected combinations of input values are covered. Because of these advantages, combinatorial testing methods are often applied in cases of the confi...

Interactions between aspects and classes are a new source for faults. Existing objectoriented testing techniques are not adequate for testing aspect-oriented programs. As a consequence, new testing techniques must be developed. We present, in this paper, a state-based unit testing technique for aspect-oriented programs and associated tool (AJUnit). The technique focuses on the integration of on...

User’s cognitive state is extremely fragile and sensitive to external interruption, especially when a user is performing a cognitively-taxing task. Given that interruptions frequently occur during human-computer interaction, and given the relative scarcity of human attention and their vulnerability to interruptions, interruption-resistance is needed to be considered when designing user interfac...

P research in new product development (NPD) has conceptualized prototyping as a “design-build-testanalyze” cycle to emphasize the importance of the analysis of test results in guiding the decisions made during the experimentation process. New product designs often involve complex architectures and incorporate numerous components, and this makes the ex ante assessment of their performance diffic...

(a) Method-level (or unit) testing refers to the internal testing of an individual method in a class. Existing testing techniques for conventional programming languages [10-11] are fully applicable to method-level testing. (b) Methods and attributes make up a class. Class-level (or intra-class) testing refers to the testing of interactions among the components of an individual class. (c) Cooper...

For large-scale multimedia events such as televised debates and speeches, the amount of content on social media channels such as Facebook or Twitter can easily become overwhelming, yet still contain information that may aid and augment understanding of the multimedia content via individual social media items, or aggregate information from the crowd’s response. In this work we discuss this oppor...

The difficulty of assessing the writing skill is well known. Different testing facets seem to affect the result of assessing the writing skill. In addition to the writer’s ability, the topic of the writing task, and methods of rating may contribute to the writer’s score. In this study, 50 EFL learners wrote four different types of writing tasks (convincing, describing, instructing, and explaini...

A correlational survey research design was utilized to investigate self-regulated Learning (SRL) and teacher-student interaction factors that had been realized to have contributive roles in EFL learners' academic success.  A sample of 218 EFL learners (male = 102 and female = 116) was drawn with the aid of a prior sample size calculator for the structural equation models from 645 students. They...
