Test Case Optimization and Prioritization Using Improved Cuckoo Search and Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm

Abstract

For minimized t-way test suite generation (t indicates more strength of interaction) recently many meta-heuristic, hybrid and hyper-heuristic algorithms are proposed which includes Artificial Bee Colony (ABC), Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), Genetic Algorithms (GA), Simulated Annealing (SA), Cuckoo Search (CS), Harmony Elements Algorithm (HE), Exponential Monte Carlo with counter (EMCQ), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Choice Function (CF). Although useful strategies are required specific domain knowledge to allow effective tuning before good quality solutions can be obtained. In our proposed technique test cases are optimized by utilizing Improved Cuckoo Algorithm (ICSA). At that point, the advanced experiments are organized or prioritized by utilizing Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (PSO). The Particle Swarm Optimization and Improved Cuckoo Algorithm (PSOICSA) estimation is a blend of Improved Cuckoo Search Algorithm(ICSA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). PSOICSA could be utilized to advance the test suite, and coordinate both ICSA and PSO for a superior outcome, when contrasted with their individual execution as far as experiment improvement.
