Existing test suite reduction techniques employed for testing web applications have either used traditional program coverage-based requirements or usage-based requirements. In thi...

Creating effective test cases is a difficult problem, especially for web applications. To comprehensively test a web application’s functionality, test cases must test complex a...

Web services, service-oriented, and service-discovery architectures help developers solve complex business cases, reduce costs, risks, and time-to-market. The task of developers i...
Concurrent programs are notorious for containing errors that are difficult to reproduce and diagnose. A common kind of concurrency error is deadlock, which occurs when some thread...
A noise maker is a tool that seeds a concurrent program with conditional synchronization primitives (such as yield()) for the purpose of increasing the likelihood that a bug manif...
Testing with random inputs can give surprisingly good results if the distribution of inputs is spread out evenly over the input domain; this is the intuition behind Adaptive Rando...

We report on the fourth in a series of studies on the reliability of application programs in the face of random input. Over the previous 15 years, we have studied the reliability ...
There are several problem areas that must be addressed when applying randomization to unit testing. As yet no general, fully automated solution that works for all units has been p...

Test campaigns usually require only a restricted subset of paths in a program to be thoroughly tested. As random testing (RT) offers interesting fault-detection capacities at low ...
Static analysis has gained much attention over the past few years in applications such as bug finding and program verification. As software becomes more complex and componentize...
