Name
Heidi Urmet
Abstract
Search based software testing uses metaheuristic algorithms to automate the generation of test cases. This thesis partially replicates a literature study published in 2010 by Ali et al. to determine how studies published in 2008-2015 use metaheuristic algorithms to automate the generation of test cases. The thesis analyses how these studies were conducted and how the cost-effectiveness is assessed in these papers. The trends detected in the new publications are compared to those presented in Ali et al.
