Tests that fail inconsistently, without changes to the code under test, are described as flaky.
Flaky tests do not give a clear indication of the presence of software bugs and thus limit the …

Software testing assures that code changes do not adversely affect existing functionality.
However, a test case can be flaky, ie, passing and failing across executions, even for the …

A flaky test is a test that both passes and fails periodically without any code changes, and its
uncontrolled uncertainty will destroy the value of the test suites and even cause developers …

Flaky tests are tests that can non-deterministically pass and fail. They pose a major
impediment to regression testing, because they provide an inconclusive assessment on …

Regression test selection (RTS) and prioritization (RTP) techniques aim to reduce testing
efforts and developer feedback time after a change to the code base. Using various …

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 …

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 …

Flaky tests (tests with non-deterministic outcomes) can be problematic for testing efficiency
and software reliability. Flaky tests in test suites can also significantly delay software …

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 …
