Model-based mutant equivalence detection using automata language equivalence and simulations

Mutation analysis is a popular technique for assessing the strength of test suites. It relies on the mutation score, which indicates their fault-revealing potential. Yet, there are …

Behavioural model-based testing of software product lines

SPL engineering is a sub-discipline of software engineering based on the idea that products of the same family can be built by systematically reusing assets, some of them being …
