Empirical studies of the effects of incorporating fault exposure potential estimates into a test data adequacy criterion

Creator:

Chen, Wei

Abstract:

Researchers have hypothesized that if we could estimate the probability that a fault in a code component will a cause a failure, we could use this estimate to improve the fault-detection effectiveness of code-coverage-based testing. If this hypothesis could be supported, it would motivate further research in this area and...

Empirical study - pairwise prediction of fault based on coverage

Creator:

Shamasunder, Shalini

Abstract:

Researchers/engineers in the field of software testing have valued coverage as a testing metric for decades now. There have been various empirical results that have shown that as coverage increases the ability of the test program to detect a fault also increases. As a result numerous coverage techniques have been...
