Abstract

Software testing is a process of ratifying the functionality of software. It is a crucial area which consumes a great deal of time and cost. The time spent on testing is mainly concerned with testing large numbers of unreliable test cases. The authors' goal is to reduce the numbers and offer more reliable test cases, which can be achieved using certain selection techniques to choose a subset of existing test cases. The main goal of test case selection is to identify a subset of the test cases that are capable of satisfying the requirements as well as exposing most of the existing faults. The state of practice among test case selection heuristics is cyclomatic complexity and code coverage. The authors used clustering algorithm which is a data mining approach to reduce the number of test cases. Their approach was able to obtain 93 unique effective test cases out a total of 504.
