2008 10th International Symposium on Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing
A Comparative Landscape Analysis of Fitness Functions for Search-Based Testing
Timisoara, Romania
September 26-September 29
ISBN: 978-0-7695-3523-4
Landscape analysis of fitness functions is an important topic.This paper makes an attempt to characterize the search problems associated with the fitness functions used in search-based testing, employingthe following measures: diameter, autocorrelation and fitness distance correlation.In a previous work, a general form of objective functions for structuralsearch-based software testing was tailored for state-based testing.A comparison is performed in this paper between the general fitness functions and some problem-specific fitness functions, taking into account their performance with different search methods.
Index Terms:
