The provocative question we are interested in is as follows:
Can we really ask a Computer to test software systems without human intervention?
Our hypothesis is that AI can perform a whole series of tasks such as design, construction, run and maintain automated test suites and in some cases replace the human being to improve Software Testers' life.
In this special issue, we want to collect scientific and industrial works aimed at investigating the synergy between AI and software testing and how AI is reshaping Test Automation. In particular, the main goal is to better understand this still unexplored phenomenon and collect the innovative solutions proposed by AI and how these are put into practice in the available testing tools/frameworks.
We invite article submissions covering all aspects of the synergy between Artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and software testing and how AI is reshaping test automation, including, but not limited to:
Manuscripts must not exceed 4,200 words, including figures and tables, which count for 250 words each. Submissions in excess of these limits may be rejected without refereeing. The articles we deem within the theme and scope will be peer reviewed and are subject to editing for magazine style, clarity, organization, and space. Be sure to include the name of the theme you’re submitting for. Articles should have a practical orientation and be written in a style accessible to practitioners. Overly complex, purely research-oriented, or highly theoretical aren’t appropriate, however articles providing scientific evidence are welcome if they focus on practical and industrial contexts. IEEE Software doesn’t republish material published previously in other venues, including other periodicals and formal conference or workshop proceedings, whether previous publication was in print or electronic form.
