JWalk: a tool for lazy, systematic testing of java classes by design introspection and user interaction
2007
Automated Software Engineering : An International Journal
Preserved Fulltext
This is achieved partly through introspection, using Java's reflection capability, and partly through interaction with the user, constructing and saving test oracles on the fly. ...
With some human interaction, JWalk performs up to the equivalent of fully automated state-based testing, from a specification that was acquired incrementally. ...
Acknowledgement Thanks are due to Christopher Thomson, for help in integrating JWalk with the IBM open source Eclipse IDE, and running comparative tests with JUnit. ...

Descartes is a tool that implements extreme mutation operators and aims at finding pseudo-tested methods in Java projects. It leverages the efficient transformation and runtime features of PIT. ...
It considers the execution time, number of mutants created and the relationship between the mutation scores produced by both engines. ...
The engine does not mutate constructors. Figure 1 illustrates the interaction between PITest and Descartes. ...

The results of the empirical studies show that mixed-strength has better rates of interaction coverage overall than fixedstrength, but they have very similar rates of fault detection. ...
Test case prioritization (TCP) plays an important role in identifying, characterizing, diagnosing and correcting faults quickly. ...
