Software developers use testing to gain and maintain confidence in the correctness of a
software system. Automated reduction and prioritization techniques attempt to decrease the …

Automated test generation is gaining popularity in the software industry, largely due to its
labor-saving benefits and its ability to achieve high test coverage. The introduction of this …

Test-suite reduction (TSR) speeds up regression testing by removing redundant tests from
the test suite, thus running fewer tests in the future builds. To decide whether to use TSR or …

Software testing is an integral part of the software engineering (SE) discipline. Effective
testing with reduced costs can be achieved through automating the testing process. In the …

Test case prioritization techniques let testers order their test cases so that those with higher
priority, according to some criterion, are executed earlier than those with lower priority. In …

Manual regression testing can be a time-intensive and costly activity. Required efforts can
be reduced by selecting only the tests for re-testing that verify actually modified system parts …

Automatic white-box test generation is a challenging problem. Many existing tools rely on
complex code analyses and heuristics. As a result, structural features of an input program …

Automated test case generation tools have been successfully proposed to reduce the
amount of human and infrastructure resources required to write and run test cases …

Testing automation tools enable developers and/or testers to easily automate the entire
process of testing in software development. Nevertheless, adopting automated testing is not …

Regression testing is a safety measure to attest that changes made on a system preserve
prior accepted behavior. Identifying which test cases must compose a regression test suite in …
