Context: During the development process of a software program, regression testing is used to ensure that the correct behavior of the software is retained after updates to the source code. This regression testing becomes costly over time as…

Regression testing assures software correctness after changes but is resource-intensive. Test Case Prioritisation (TCP) mitigates this by ordering tests to maximise early fault detection. Diversity-based TCP prioritises dissimilar tests,…

Regression testing in Continuous Integration (CI) pipelines is increasingly costly due to the growing size and execution frequency of test suites. Test Case Prioritization (TCP) mitigates this problem by reordering tests to expose faults…

Regression Testing is exclusively executed to guarantee the desirable functionality of existing software after pursuing quite a few amendments or variations in it. Perhaps, it testifies the quality of the modified software by concealing the…

Test Case Prioritization (TCP) is an increasingly important regression testing technique for reordering test cases according to a pre-defined goal, particularly as agile practices gain adoption. To better understand these techniques, we…

Regression testing activities greatly reduce the risk of faulty software release. However, the size of the test suites grows throughout the development process, resulting in time-consuming execution of the test suite and delayed feedback to…

Context: Test case prioritization (TCP) is a technique widely used by software development organizations to accelerate regression testing. Objectives: We aim to systematize existing TCP knowledge and to propose and empirically evaluate a…

Regression testing of software is a crucial but time-consuming task, especially in the context of user interface (UI) testing where multiple microservices must be validated simultaneously. Test case prioritization (TCP) is a cost-efficient…

Test case prioritisation (TCP) is a critical task in regression testing to ensure quality as software evolves. Machine learning has become a common way to achieve it. In particular, learning-to-rank (LTR) algorithms provide an effective…

Regression testing is performed to provide confidence that changes in a part of software do not affect other parts of the software. An execution of all existing test cases is the best way to re-establish this confidence. However, regression…

Continuous Integration (CI) requires efficient regression testing to ensure software quality without significantly delaying its CI builds. This warrants the need for techniques to reduce regression testing time, such as Test Case…

Code coverage analysis has been widely adopted in the continuous integration of open-source and industry software repositories to monitor the adequacy of regression test suites. However, computing code coverage can be costly, introducing…

Code coverage has been used in the software testing context mostly as a metric to assess a generated test suite's quality. Recently, code coverage analysis is used as a white-box testing technique for test optimization. Most of the research…

Conformal prediction (CP) is a framework to quantify uncertainty of machine learning classifiers including deep neural networks. Given a testing example and a trained classifier, CP produces a prediction set of candidate labels with a…

Test Case Prioritization (TCP) is an important component of regression testing, allowing for earlier detection of faults or helping to reduce testing time and cost. While several TCP approaches exist in the research literature, a growing…

There is a growing body of research indicating the potential of machine learning to tackle complex software testing challenges. One such challenge pertains to continuous integration testing, which is highly time-constrained, and generates a…

Test case prioritization focuses on finding a suitable order of execution of the test cases in a test suite to meet some performance goals like detecting faults early. It is likely that some test cases execute the program parts that are…

Test Case Prioritization (TCP) techniques aim at proposing new test case execution orders to favor the achievement of certain testing goal, such as fault detection. Current TCP research focus mainly on code-based regression testing; however…

Conformal prediction (CP) is an emerging uncertainty quantification framework that allows us to construct a prediction set to cover the true label with a pre-specified marginal or conditional probability. Although the valid coverage…

Recently, several Test Case Prioritization (TCP) techniques have been proposed to order test cases for achieving a goal during test execution, particularly, revealing faults sooner. In the Model-Based Testing (MBT) context, such techniques…
