This paper introduces an approach to web application regression testing, based upon repair of user session data. The approach is entirely automated. It consists of a white box exa...
Evolutionary methods have been used to repair programs automatically, with promising results. However, the fitness function used to achieve these results was based on a few simpl...

We present a novel algorithm for repairing structurally complex data. Given an assertion that represents desired structural integrity constraints and a structure that violates them...
This paper discusses the use of “relative debugging” as a technique for locating errors in a program that has been ported or developed using evolutionary software engineering ...
