Object-oriented unit tests consist of sequences of method invocations. Behavior of an
invocation depends on the method's arguments and the state of the receiver at the …

An objective of unit testing is to achieve high structural coverage of the code under test.
Achieving high structural overage of object-oriented code requires desirable method-call …

This article describes a new approach to the unit testing of object-oriented programs, a set of
tools based on this approach, and two case studies. In this approach, each test case …

This paper describes a new approach to testing objectoriented programs, a set of tools
based on this approach, and two case studies. Test cases consist of pairs of sequences of …

Programs developed with object technologies have unique features that often make
traditional testing methods inadequate. Consider, for instance, the dependence between the …

Achieving high structural coverage such as branch coverage in object-oriented programs is
an important and yet challenging goal due to two main challenges. First, some branches …

Object-oriented programming consists of several different levels of abstraction, namely, the
algorithmic level, class level, cluster level, and system level. The testing of object-oriented …

Because of the growing importance of object-oriented programming, a number of testing
strategies have been proposed. They are based either on pure black-box or white-box …

Search‐based techniques have been applied successfully to the task of generating unit tests
for object‐oriented software. However, as for any meta‐heuristic search, the efficiency …

Testing involves two major activities: generating test inputs and determining whether they
reveal faults. Automated test generation techniques include random generation and …
