Abstract: There has recently been a great deal of interest in search based test data generation, with many local and global search algorithms being proposed. In this paper, the program operations, in the form of the programspecific operations used to increase the performance in the generation of test data. The efficacy and performance of the proposed testing approach is assessed and validated using a variety of sample programs, and the empirical investigation is shown to give more than eightfold increase in performance.
