   Test oracle strategies for model-based testing
Li N., Offutt J. IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering 43(4): 372-395, 2017.  Type: Article

For software testing, it is important to know the expected results of test inputs. In a simple form, an oracle helps to determine if a test passed or failed by providing the expected output for a given test input. Oracle strategies int...

  Looking Glass: a C++ library for testing student programs through reflection
Turner S.  SIGCSE 2015 (Proceedings of the 46th ACM Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education, Kansas City, MO, Mar 4-7, 2015) 528-533, 2015.  Type: Proceedings

Computer-assisted evaluation of computer code is a work in progress. This paper on a library that tests students’ C++ programs shows both the progress made and the work remaining. The paper substantiates the benefit that stud...

  An experimental evaluation of test driven development vs. test-last development with industry professionals
Munir H., Wnuk K., Petersen K., Moayyed M.  EASE 2014 (Proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Evaluation and Assessment in Software Engineering, London, UK, May 13-14, 2014) 1-10, 2014.  Type: Proceedings

The results of an experiment comparing test-driven development (TDD) with test-last development (TLD) are reported. The subjects were professional Java developers who were asked to implement seven small user stories adapted from Robert...

  A tool supporting root cause analysis for synchronous retrospectives in distributed software teams
Lehtinen T., Virtanen R., Viljanen J., Mäntylä M., Lassenius C. Information and Software Technology 56(4): 408-437, 2014.  Type: Article

The notion of recording lessons learned during a project’s progress and preserving them for posterity (post deployment) seems to have achieved nearly universal consensus as being good. Yet I’ve been frustrated enoug...

  Software testing with code-based test generators: data and lessons learned from a case study with an industrial software component
Braione P., Denaro G., Mattavelli A., Vivanti M., Muhammad A. Software Quality Journal 22(2): 311-333, 2014.  Type: Article

This paper is an interesting indictment of the current state of test generators for software programs. The authors provide a very good overview of the available test generator methodology and discuss the more than 20 years of research ...

  xUnit test patterns: refactoring test code
Meszaros G., Prentice Hall PTR, Upper Saddle River, NJ, 2007. 833 pp.  Type: Book (9780131495050)

Originally developed by Kent Beck and Eric Gamma for its use in extreme programming [1], JUnit is an automated unit-testing framework for the Java programming language. In fact, it is just an instance of the xUnit testing framework fam...

  Automated Oracle comparators for TestingWeb applications
Sprenkle S., Pollock L., Esquivel H., Hazelwood B., Ecott S.  Software reliability (Proceedings of the The 18th IEEE International Symposium on Software Reliability (ISSRE ’07),Nov 5-Nov 9, 2007) 117-126, 2007.  Type: Proceedings

Web applications can be tested automatically by looking for changes in Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) output using a previous working version of the application as the oracle. Many properties of HTML code are best ignored, however, w...
