Abstract

Software testing activity is imperative to improve software quality. However, finding a set of test cases satisfies a given test criterion, is not a trivial task because the overall input domain is very large, and different test sets can be derived, with different effectiveness. In the context of structural testing, the non-executability is a feature present in most programs, increasing cost and effort of testing activity. When concurrent programs are tested, new challenges arise, mainly related to the non-determinism. Non-determinism can result in different possible test outputs for the same test input, which makes the problem of non-executability more complex, requiring treatment. In this sense, our project intends to define an approach to support automatic identification of infeasible testing requirements. Hence, this proposal aims to identify properties which cause infeasible testing requirements and automate their application. Due to complexity of the problem, we will apply search-based algorithms in the automation of concurrent and sequential programs treatment.
