F-Secure is a global leader in providing security as a service through ISP's and mobile operators [1]. The company first used Agile more than 5 years ago and is still in the transition and building the true Agile culture. Test automation (TA) is one of Agile practices that the company has been focusing on and improving lately [2]. This paper describes how TA has been implemented in the company, benefits...
Structural testing is widely used in industrial verification processes of critical software. This report presents PathCrawler, a structural test generation tool that may be used to automate this activity, and several evaluation criteria of automatic test generation tools for C programs. These criteria correspond to the issues identified during our ongoing experience in the development of PathCrawler...
There is a resurgence of research in model-based testing, especially in the automated generation of test cases from abstract models. However this work largely remains theoretical: industrial adoption is low. This is partly due to the dominance of state-based approaches that often rely on global states that are problematic with respect to scalability and traceability. Developers and testers alike significantly...
A major issue in software testing is the automatic generation of the inputs to be applied to the programme under test. To solve this problem, a number of approaches based on search methods have been developed in the last few years, offering promising results for adequacy criteria like, for instance, branch coverage. We devise branch coverage as the satisfaction of a number of constraints. This allows...
Software specification is an important element of the software development process. However, in most cases the specifications are out-of-date or even missing. One solution for this kind of problem is to use some process that infers the specification automatically. Work by Ernst et al (2000 ; 2002) has shown how specifications can be generated using program execution traces. These approaches are dependent...
