Functional requirements contain, and systems exhibit, the behavior summarized below.Despite the advances in software engineering since 1968, how to go from a set of functional req...
A number of strategies have been proposed for state-based class testing. An important proposal was made by Chow [5] and adapted by Binder [3]: It consists in deriving test sequenc...

The efficacy of mutation analysis depends heavily on its capability to mutate programs in such a way that they remain executable and exhibit deviating behaviour. Whereas the forme...
Modern source-level debuggers support dynamic breakpoints that are guarded by conditions based on program state. Such breakpoints address situations where a static breakpoint is n...
Empirical studies are crucial to gain evidence on the effects of software engineering methods and tools in defined contexts. However, empirical studies can be costly and thus need...
