A comparative study of coarse- and fine-grained safe regression test-selection techniques
2001
ACM Transactions on Software Engineering and Methodology
Preserved Fulltext
Regression test-selection techniques reduce the cost of regression testing by selecting a subset of an existing test suite to use in retesting a modified program. ...
Our results indicate, that in many instances, despite its relative lack of precision, TestTube can reduce the time required for regression testing as much as the more precise DejaVu. ...
TestTube uses a general technique of regression test selection based on coarse-grained analysis of the coverage relationship between test cases and the system under test; it has been implemented for the ...

The RW predictor was applied to a number of subjects, using two different selective regression testing tools, DejaVu and TestTube. These studies support two conclusions. ...
One approach to reducing the cost of regression testing is to employ a selective regression testing technique that 1) chooses a subset of a test suite that was used to test the software before the modifications ...
Given a system under test , a regression test suite for , and a selective regression testing method w, it is possible to use information about the coverage relation overs w induced by w over and the entities ...

In one case study, the TESTTUBE method selected an average of 88.1 percent of the available test cases in each version, while the predictor predicted that 87.3 percent of the test cases would be selected ...

A case study is described in which these predictors are used to assess the appropriateness of using a particular regression testing strategy to test multiple versions of a widely-used software system. ...
For instance, TESTTUBE is a system for selective regression testing of C programs in which the entities that are analyzed are function definitions, global variable definitions, type definitions and preprocessor ...

It is also often referred to as the Regression Test case Selection (RTS) problem. ...
More formally, following Rothermel and Harrold [138], the selection problem is defined as follows (refer to Section 4 for more details on how the subset T is selected): Definition 2 Test Case Selection ...
Any test case that executes modified functions will be selected. Therefore, TestTube is a safe test case selection technique. One weakness of TestTube is pointer handling. ...
