Evaluation of Regressive Methods for Automated Generation of Test Trajectories
Automated generation of test cases is a prerequisite for fast testing. Whereas the research has addressed the creation of individual test points, test trajectoiy generation has attracted limited. In simple terms,a test trajectoiy is defined as a series of data points, with each (possiblymultidimensional)point relying upon the value(s)ofpreviouspoint(s). Software systems that use data trajectories as inputs include closed-loopprocess controllers. For these systems, software testers can either handcraft test trajectories, use input trajectories from older versions of the system or, perhaps, collect test data in a high fidelity system simulator. While these are valid approaches, they are expensive and time-consuming, especially if the assessment goals require substantialnumber of tests. In this paper, we propose aframework for expanding a small, conventionallydevelopedset of test trajectories into a large set suitable,for example,for system safe0 assurance. In the core of this framework ...
