Regression testing can greatly help in software development, but it can be seriously
undermined by flaky tests, which can both pass and fail, seemingly nondeterministically, on …

Flaky tests are test cases that can pass or fail without code changes. They often waste the
time of software developers and obstruct the use of continuous integration. Previous work …

Context Automated classifiers, often based on machine learning (ML), are increasingly used
in software engineering (SE) for labelling previously unseen SE data. Researchers have …

Regression Testing (RT) is a quality-assurance practice commonly adopted in the software
industry to check if functionality remains intact after code changes. Test flakiness is a serious …

Much research on software testing makes an implicit assumption that test failures are
deterministic such that they always witness the presence of the same defects. However, this …

Regression testing is a widely adopted approach to expose change-induced bugs as well as
to verify the correctness/robustness of code in modern software development settings …

Test flakiness is a phenomenon occurring when a test case is non-deterministic and exhibits
both a passing and failing behavior when run against the same code. Over the last years …

Flaky tests are tests that yield different outcomes when run on the same version of a
program. This non-deterministic behaviour plagues continuous integration with false signals …

Flaky tests are tests that exhibit both a passing and failing behavior when run against the
same code. While the research community has attempted to define automated approaches …

Test prioritization algorithms prioritize probable failing tests to give faster feedback to
developers in case a failure occurs. Test prioritization approaches that use historical failures …
