An Effective Iterative Metamorphic Testing Algorithm Based on Program Path Analysis
Guowei Dong, Changhai Nie, Baowen Xu, Lulu Wang · 2007
Metamorphic testing (MT) is very practical and effective for programs with oracle problems, and many researches have been done in this field. In this article, we present a new iterative MT algorithm, APCEMSI, to avoid the blindness of existing MT methods. The test suites generated by APCEMSI satisfy a criterion which is defined upon program path analysis technique. Experiment result shows that APCEMSI could find errors effectively with much fewer test cases.
