Techniques to automatically identify the stereotypes of different software artifacts (e.g., classes, methods, commits) were previously presented. Those approaches utilized the techniques to support comprehension of software artifacts, but those stereotype-based approaches were not designed to consider the structure and purpose of unit tests, which are widely used in software development to increase the quality of source code. Moreover, unit tests are different than production code, since they are designed and written by following different principles and workflows.
