Software Partition Testing Based on Execution Profiles Filtering

Zhiping Chen · Journal of Hunan University · 2006

This paper proposed a new partition testing method based on execution profiles filtering.It startd with a large universe of executions filtered to find subsets,which consisted of unusual failure-causing execution behaviors.These executions were then replayed and checked according to requirements to find faults.This method increased the probability of finding faults because most failure-causing inputs were partitioned in certain subsets.Experiment results indicated that this method had relatively high fault-partition concentration and fault-finding probability,and its effectiveness was better than random testing in the same conditions.
