The test case generation is intrinsically a multi-objective problem, since the goal is covering
multiple test targets (eg, branches). Existing search-based approaches either consider one …

The Search-Based Software Engineering (SBSE) community is increasingly recognizing the
inherit “multiobjectiveness” in Software Engineering problems. The old ways of aggregating …

Abstract The aim of Search Based Software Engineering (SBSE) research is to move
software engineering problems from human-based search to machine-based search, using …

Test data generation has been extensively investigated as a search problem, where the
search goal is to maximize the number of covered program elements (eg, branches) …

This paper presents a survey of work on Search Based Software Engineering (SBSE) for
Software Product Lines (SPLs). We have attempted to be comprehensive, in the sense that …

Software testing activities account for a considerable portion of systems development cost
and, for this reason, many studies have sought to automate these activities. Test data …

Unit testing, crucial for ensuring the reliability of code modules, such as classes and
methods, is often overlooked by developers due to time constraints. Automated test …

Unit testing is an essential part of the software development process, which helps to identify
issues with source code in early stages of development and prevent regressions. Machine …

The role of software testing in the software development process is widely recognized as a
key activity for successful projects. This is the reason why in the last decade several …

Recently, deep learning-based test case generation approaches have been proposed to
automate the generation of unit test cases. In this study, we leverage Transformer-based …
