The possibility of creating such a tool is based on the authors' experience in analyzing the fault history of several large industrial software projects, and constructing statistical models that are capable of accurately predicting the most fault-prone software entities in an industrial environment. The emphasis of this paper is on the issues involved in the tool design and construction and an assessment of the extent to which the entire process can be automated so that it can be widely deployed and used by practitioners who do not necessarily have any particular statistical or modeling expertise","PeriodicalId":441264,"journal":{"name":"Testing: Academic & Industrial Conference - Practice And Research Techniques (TAIC PART'06)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128887589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Four categories of refactoring are identified by VD&M ranging from semantic-preserving to incompatible, where, for the former, no new tests are required and for the latter, a completely new test set has to be developed. In our appraisal of the taxonomy, we heavily stress the need for the inter-dependence of the refactoring categories to be considered when making refactoring decisions and we base that need on a refactoring dependency graph developed as part of the research. We demonstrate that while incompatible refactorings may be harmful and time-consuming from a testing perspective, semantic-preserving refactorings can have equally unpleasant hidden ramifications despite their advantages. In fact, refactorings which fall into neither category have the most interesting properties. We support our results with empirical refactoring data drawn from seven Java open-source systems (OSS) and from the same analysis form a tentative categorization of code smells","PeriodicalId":441264,"journal":{"name":"Testing: Academic & Industrial Conference - Practice And Research Techniques (TAIC PART'06)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130701832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A proposed requirements traceability model joins all the test artifacts to each other and to the requirements allowing testers to maintain control over requirements coverage during the entire testing process.

It is assumed that these hints are available in the form of incomplete specifications and are refined using reverse-engineered X-machines. Finally, a method will be developed to generate concrete test cases from the refined X-machines and the tool will be updated accordingly.

However, selection of the most important test cases for the harness is often difficult, since capturing the key characteristics related to the most important functionalities is not obvious. Aspect-oriented programming provides means for capturing such cross-cutting issues in systems and promising means for implementing test harnesses for embedded software. This paper studies an example of weaving testing aspects into existing Symbian OS software running on a mobile device.

When components come from third party sources, their internal structure is usually unknown and the documentation is insufficient. Therefore, the system integrator faces the problem of providing a required system assembling COTS whose behaviour is barely specified and for which no model is usually available. In this paper, we address the problem of integration testing of COTS. It combines test generation techniques with machine learning algorithms. State-based models of components are built from observed behaviours. The models are alternatively used to generate tests and extended to take into account observed behaviour. This process is iterated until a satisfactory level of confidence in testing is achieved","PeriodicalId":441264,"journal":{"name":"Testing: Academic & Industrial Conference - Practice And Research Techniques (TAIC PART'06)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131028076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Test managers from twelve different software organizations were interviewed. The interviews focused on the amount of resources spent on testing, how the testing is conducted, and the knowledge of the personnel in the test organizations. The data indicate that the overall test maturity is low. Test managers are aware of this but have trouble improving. One problem is that the organizations are commercially successful, suggesting that products must already be \"good enough\". Also, the current lack of structured testing in practice makes it difficult to quantify the current level of maturity and thereby articulate the potential gain from increasing testing maturity to upper management and developers","PeriodicalId":441264,"journal":{"name":"Testing: Academic & Industrial Conference - Practice And Research Techniques (TAIC PART'06)","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116286316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A delayed failure is a failure that occurs some time after the conditions that lead to the failure are applied. There appear to be no studies of delayed failures of software in the literature and no comparative studies of the effectiveness of different HVAT techniques; therefore research in this area can make an important contribution. Delayed failures in software are unlikely to be revealed by conventional testing techniques; a HVAT technique that systematically reveals delayed failures could lead to improved reliability of software and reduced costs.

Industrial experience, with those written in the standardised testing and test control notation (TTCN-3), has shown that this maintenance is a non-trivial task and its burden could be reduced if appropriate tool support existed. To this aim, Motorola has collaborated with the University of Gottingen to develop TRex, a TTCN-3 development environment published under the Eclipse Public License, which notably provides suitable metrics and refactorings to enable the assessment and automatic restructuring of test suites. In this paper we present the TRex tool, which will make it far easier to construct and maintain TTCN-3 tests that are concise and optimally balanced with respect to readability, usability, and maintainability","PeriodicalId":441264,"journal":{"name":"Testing: Academic & Industrial Conference - Practice And Research Techniques (TAIC PART'06)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134200875","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
