  • Metrics lunch seminar

    Virtual event , Sweden

    Deep neural networks trained on source code have been shown to automate routine development tasks such as code completion, comments generation, etc. But is such an AI expert in coding also an expert in software design?

  • Lunch Seminar: Generating Exception-Triggering Tests

    Virtual event , Sweden

    Speaker: Gregory Gay, Chalmers Abstract: Search-based test generation is guided by feedback from one or more fitness functions—scoring functions that judge solution optimality. Choosing informative fitness functions is crucial to meeting the goals of a tester. Unfortunately, many goals—such as forcing the class-under-test to throw exceptions—do not have a known fitness function formulation. We propose that meeting such goals requires treating fitness function identification as a secondary optimization step. An adaptive algorithm that can vary the selection of
