Model-Based Testing of Environmental Conformance of Components
Abstract. In component-based development, the correctness of a system depends on the correctness of the individual components and on their interactions. Model-based testing is a wa...

Model-Based Test Selection for Infinite-State Reactive Systems
This paper addresses the problem of off-line selection of test cases for testing the conformance of a black-box implementation with respect to a specification, in the context of re...

A Test Calculus Framework Applied to Network Security Policies
Abstract. We propose a syntax-driven test generation technique to auly derive abstract test cases from a set of requirements expressed in a linear temporal logic. Assuming that an ...

A comparison of evaluation methods in coevolution
In this research, we compare four different evaluation methods in coevolution on the Majority Function problem. The size of the problem is selected such that an evaluation against...

Test Selection Criteria for Quantifier-Free First-Order Specifications
This paper deals with test case selection from axiomatic specifications whose axioms are quantifier-free first-order formulae. Test cases are modeled as ground formulae and any spe...

Defect Detection Efficiency: Test Case Based vs. Exploratory Testing
This paper presents a controlled experiment comparing the defect detection efficiency of exploratory testing (ET) and test case based testing (TCT). While traditional testing lite...

An Estimation Model for Test Execution Effort
It is important for test managers to be able to estimate the effort required to execute the test suites requested by development teams, as well to estimate its capacity for attend...

Piping Classification to Metamorphic Testing: An Empirical Study towards Better Effectiveness for the Identification of Failures
Mesh simplification is a mainstream technique to render graphics responsively in modern graphical software. However, the graphical nature of the output poses a test oracle problem...

Estimating the Number of Test Cases Required to Satisfy the All-du-paths Testing Criterion
The all-du-paths software testing criterion is the most discriminating of the data ow testing criteria of Rapps and Weyuker. Unfortunately, in the worst case, the criterion requir...

Target-Sensitive Construction of Diagnostic Programs for Procedure Calling Sequence Generators
Building compilers that generate correct code is difficult. In this paper we present a compiler testing technique that closes the gap between actual compiler implementations and c...
