The published studies of regression testing methods often contain many of the hallmarks of
high quality empirical research. Beyond features like clear descriptions of the methodology …

Regression testing research has received significant focus during the past decades,
acknowledging the benefits it can provide to organisations in terms of reduced development …

One of the most expensive activities that occurs as software is developed and maintained is
the testing (or retesting) of the software after it has been modified. Studies suggest that a …

When software developers make changes to a program, it is possible that they will introduce
faults into previously working parts of the code. As software grows, a regression test suite is …

An examination is made of current testing methodologies and their relationship to regression
testing. Included is a survey and critical assessment of current regression testing tools, with …

Regression testing is a necessary but expensive activity aimed at showing that code has not
been adversely affected by changes. A selective approach to regression testing attempts to …

Selective regression testing involves retesting of software systems with a subset of the test
suite to verify that modifications have not adversely impacted existing functions. Although …

As most software continually evolves and changes during development and maintenance, it
is necessary to test new and modified parts and retest existing parts that might have been …

Context: Regression testing is a well-researched area. However, the majority regression
testing techniques proposed by the researchers are not getting the attention of the …

Regression testing is a necessary maintenance activity that can ensure high quality of the
modified software system, and a great deal of research on regression testing has been …
