Assessing model-based testing: an empirical study conducted in industry
ICSE Companion 2014: Companion Proceedings of the 36th International Conference on Software Engineering

We compare manual testing without any automation performed by a tester at a software company with model-based testing (MBT) performed by a tester at a research center.

The system under test (SUT), of which two different versions were tested by each ...
Implementation of Software Testing Practices in Pakistan's Software Industry
ICMSS 2018: Proceedings of the 2018 2nd International Conference on Management Engineering, Software Engineering and Service Sciences

Agile methodology uses the incremental and iterative method and is commonly utilized in the Pakistan's industry projects as they can accommodate changes in requirements. Product distribution is accomplished by using small iterations/repetitions, but ...
Teaching software testing concepts using a mutation testing game
ICSE-SEET '17: Proceedings of the 39th International Conference on Software Engineering: Software Engineering and Education Track

Software testing is a core aspect of software development, but testing programs systematically is not always a core aspect of software engineering education. As a result, software developers often treat testing as a liability, and overall software ...
