Experiments on the effectiveness of dataflow- and controlflow-based test adequacy criteria

by Monica Hutchins, Herb Foster, Tarak Goradia, Thomas Ostrand - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING , 1994
"... This paper reports an experimental study investigating the effectiveness of two code-based test adequacy criteria for identifying sets of test cases that detect faults. The alledges and all-D Us (modified all-uses) coverage criteria were applied to 130 faulty program versions derived from seven mode ..."

Software unit test coverage and adequacy

by Hong Zhu, Patrick A. V. Hall, John H. R. May - ACM Computing Surveys , 1997
"... Objective measurement of test quality is one of the key issues in software testing. It has been a major research focus for the last two decades. Many test criteria have been proposed and studied for this purpose. Various kinds of rationales have been presented in support of one criterion or another. ..."

State coverage: a structural test adequacy criterion for behavior checking

by Ken Koster, David C. Kao - In The 6th Joint Meeting on European software engineering conference and the ACM SIGSOFT symposium on the foundations of software engineering: companion papers, ESEC-FSE companion ’07 , 2007
"... We propose a new language-independent, structural test ad-equacy criterion called state coverage. State coverage mea-sures whether unit-level tests check the outputs and side effects of a program. State coverage differs in several respects from existing test adequacy criteria, such as code coverage ..."

Adequacy of limited testing for knowledge based systems

by Tim Menzies, Bojan Cukic - International Journal on Artificial Intelligence Tools (IJAIT , 2000
"... Knowledge-based engineering and computational intelligence are expected to become core technologies in the design and manufacturing for the next generation of space exploration missions. The literature is contradictory on how we are to assess such systems. Studies indicate significant disagreement r ..."

. Our goal is to investigate the trade-off between the completeness criterion and the size of test suites. The results of testing experiment on tens of thousands of mutants of real-world knowledge based systems indicate that a very limited gain in completeness can be achieved through prolonged testing

An Empirical Comparison of Mutation and Data Flow Based Test Adequacy Criteria

by Aditya P. Mathur, W. Eric Wong , 1993
"... Evaluation of the adequacy of a test set consisting of one or more test cases is a problem often encountered in software testing environments. We consider two test adequacy criteria, namely the data-flow based all-uses criterion and a mutation based criterion. We present results of an empirical stud ..."

Assessing Test Set Adequacy for ObjectOriented Programs Using

by Sun-woo Kim, John A. Clark, John A. Mcdermid - Class Mutation, 28 JAIIO: Symposium on Software Technology (SoST`99 , 1999
"... Abstract. The object-oriented paradigm has seen widespread acceptance by the software development community but the testing of programs written in object oriented languages is less well developed than the testing of programs written in conventional ones. This paper introduces Class Mutation which is ..."

A consumer's guide to setting performance standards of criterion-referenced tests

by Ronald A. Berk - Review of Educational Research , 1986
"... ABSTRACT. This review identifies 38 methods for either setting standards or adjusting them based on an analysis of classification error rates. A trilevel classification scheme is used to categorize the methods, and 10 criteria of technical adequacy and practicability are proposed to evaluate them. T ..."

A Formal Evaluation of Mutation and Data Flow Based Test Adequacy Criteria

by Aditya Mathur, W. Eric Wong - Software Engineering Research Center, Purdue University , 1994
"... Evaluation of the adequacy of a test set is a frequently encountered problem in software testing. Data flow and mutation-based testing methods provide several criteria to evaluate test sets. This work considers the c-use, p-use, and all-uses based data flow criteria and compares these with a mutatio ..."

Test Case Generation for Adequacy of Floating-point to Fixed-point Conversion

by Tuan-hung Pham, Anh-hoang Truong, Wei-ngan Chin, Takenobu Aoshima
"... Porting an application written for personal computer to embedded devices requires conversion of floating-point numbers and operations into fixed-point ones. Testing the conversion hence requires the latter be as close as possible to the former. The closeness is orthogonal to code coverage and requir ..."

and requires different strategies to generate a test suite that reveals the gap between the two functions. We introduce a new test adequacy criterion and propose several metrics to quantify the closeness of two functions. After that we propose a method to generate a better test suite from a given one
