Efficient Framework for Fully Automatic Test Case Generation and Prioritization Using Genetic Algorithm in Software Testing

摘要

Automation in software testing is significantly growing in recent situation. Most part of the system is automated with help of the software. Today every modern software developers are trying to automate the software development process as much as possible. Therefore to develop any software more skills and expertise are needed. For the software development process, testing of software is the exceedingly significant and considerable phase. Automatic test data generation had an essential function in specific area regarding software testing. Test case creation is technique of gathering the data which completes the testing standards, all criteria's and conditions. During testing process, the software goes through frequent modifications. As a result, due to all of these modifications and repetitive retesting the cost of testing process increases. This is called regression testing. Regression testing requires more expertise, more effort, more time and more cost. Here to reduce the time and expenditure, many type of techniques are proposed. The changes in one test case will affect all the others test cases. To triumph over this problem, when the changes occurred in the software every the test case have to be retested repeatedly. And this problem leads to make the testing process time consuming with unnecessary increased cost. Here In this research paper, the work's focal point on automatic test cases generation and prioritization with improved evolutionary genetic algorithm.
