When developers make changes to their code, they typically run regression tests to detect if their recent changes (re) introduce any bugs. However, many tests are flaky, and their …
Flaky tests are tests whose outcomes are non-deterministic. Despite the recent research activity on this topic, no effort has been made on understanding the vocabulary of flaky tests …
A test is said to be flaky when it non-deterministically passes or fails. Test flakiness negatively affects the effectiveness of regression testing and, consequently, impacts …
A flaky test is a test case whose outcome changes without modification to the code of the test case or the program under test. These tests disrupt continuous integration, cause a loss of …

Non-deterministically passing and failing test cases, so-called flaky tests, have recently become a focus area of software engineering research. While this research focus has been …
Test flakiness forms a major testing concern. Flaky tests manifest non-deterministic outcomes that cripple continu-ous integration and lead developers to investigate false alerts …
Industrial reports indicate that flaky tests are one of the primary concerns of software testing mainly due to the false signals they provide. To deal with this issue, researchers have …

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 …
