We describe the deployment of the Sapienz Search Based Software Engineering (SBSE) testing system. Sapienz has been deployed in production at Facebook since September 2017 to design test cases, localise and triage crashes to developers and to monitor their fixes. Since then, running in fully continuous integration within Facebook’s production development process, Sapienz has been testing Facebook’s Android app, which consists of millions of lines of code and is used daily by hundreds of millions of people around the globe. We continue to build on the Sapienz infrastructure, extending it to provide other software engineering services, applying it to other apps and platforms, and hope this will yield further industrial interest in and uptake of SBSE (and hybridisations of SBSE) as a result.
