A fundamental question in software testing research is how to compare test suites, often as a
means for comparing test-generation techniques that produce those test suites. Researchers …

We study the relationship between three properties of test suites: size, structural coverage,
and fault-finding effectiveness. In particular, we study the question of whether achieving high …

The coverage of a test suite is often used as a proxy for its ability to detect faults. However,
previous studies that investigated the correlation between code coverage and test suite …

In the avionics domain, the use of structural coverage criteria is legally required in
determining test suite adequacy. With the success of automated test generation tools, it is …

A number of criteria have been proposed to judge test suite adequacy. While search-based
test generation has improved greatly at criteria coverage, the produced suites are still often …

Not all bugs lead to program crashes, and not always is there a formal specification to check
the correctness of a software test's outcome. A common scenario in software testing is …

Context: Software testing is a pivotal activity in the development of high-quality software. As
software is evolving through its life cycle, the need for a fault-revealing criterion assessing …

One of the key challenges of developers testing code is determining a test suite's quality--its
ability to find faults. The most common approach is to use code coverage as a measure for …

Most test suite reduction techniques aim to select, from a given test suite, a minimal
representative subset of test cases that retains the same code coverage as the suite …
