Regression test case prioritization optimizes the ordering of test cases to be executed to meet some criteria like maximum code coverage or high rate of fault detection. In prior work we prioritized test cases according to a hybrid technique using variable based method that combined both selection and prioritization. We inferred in our approach that variables are vital source of changes in the ...

There exist a large number of approaches for prioritization of software requirements. Despite of several empirical studies, there is still a lack of evidence of which approaches that are to prefer, since different studies have resulted in different conclusions. Reasons may be due to differences in contexts, variables measured, and data sets used. This paper presents a research framework for stu...

Test Case Prioritization (TCP) is setting priority to each and every test case from test case suit and executes those test cases in descending order. The proposed generic tool will first generate test cases from UML diagram sequence diagram and prioritize them on basis of following criteria's: prioritization on depending upon depth, prioritization on dependency of number of parameters, pri...

Economics as a subject is regarded the bedrock of all management and social science-based disciplines. The persistently low level students’ achievement in senior secondary school (SSS II) examinations has become thing great concern to stakeholders. This study examined performance SSS II qualifying examination Kano State influence gender schools’ nature on their performances Economics. An ex-pos...

A Multidimensional Approach to Measuring Poverty and the Assessment of Educational Poverty in Iran1   E. Aboonoori, Ph.D. * A.A. Saalem, Ph.D. ** J. Arab Yaarmohammadi ***   A multidimensional approach to measuring poverty facilitates the assessment of educational poverty as one of its several dimensions. Utilizing this approach, the overall poverty in Iran in the years of 2005 ...

Test case prioritization aims to schedule test cases in a certain order such that the effectiveness of regression testing can be improved. Prioritization using random sequence is a basic and simple technique, and normally acts as a benchmark to evaluate other prioritization techniques. Adaptive Random Sequence (ARS) makes use of extra information to improve the diversity of random sequence. Som...

Prioritization of cancer implicated genes has received growing attention as an effective way to reduce wet lab cost by computational analysis that ranks candidate genes according to the likelihood that experimental verifications will succeed. A multitude of gene prioritization tools have been developed, each integrating different data sources covering gene sequences, differential expressions, f...

Test case prioritization involves scheduling test cases in an order that increases the effectiveness in achieving some performance goals. One of the most important performance goals is the rate of fault detection. Test cases should run in an order that increases the possibility of fault detection and also that detects the most severe faults at the earliest in its testing life cycle. Regression ...

Land preservation and restoration are important tools for managing imperiled aquatic species, but they are often applied in the absence of a transparent scheme of geographic prioritization. To help guide preservation and restoration efforts in the Conasauga River Basin in Georgia and Tennessee, we used the “Zonation” algorithm to prioritize sub-watersheds. Zonation is a prioritization system th...

The aim of this study was to describe the reasoning of people aged 60 years and over about prioritization in health care with regard to age and willingness to pay. Healthy people (n = 300) and people receiving continuous care and services (n = 146) who were between 60 and 101 years old were interviewed about their views on prioritization in health care. The transcribed interviews were analysed ...
