1st International Workshop on Validating Software Tests (Event)

Description

Large software projects tend to accumulate many test cases, which can become difficult to maintain. Both automatically-generated and human-written test cases often come without documentation, so it is difficult to determine how a test should be adapted to a new system. Should a passing test perhaps fail? Should a failing test be made to pass? Are there tools and techniques that can help us find an answer to these questions? Unlike full program understanding and visualization, understanding a test case typically involves a single program trace, and is therefore a more targeted and tractable problem. Much work has been done on individual aspects of this problem, and we hope this workshop gives a platform for discussions and possible synergistic approaches.
