| Abstract(in English) | The automation tools for improving productivity of software development are abandoned at times due to lower-than-expected performance. The automatic test-case-generation tool we are developing, which is based on symbol execution, fails in test-case generation for certain programs. These failures cannot be addressed until the tool has finished running. Hence, although our tool can reduce the number of manual test-case-generation, but it takes longer to generate test cases than to manually generate all test cases from scratch. We propose a method of predicting the failure of symbolic-execution-based automatic test-case generation using machine learning and decision-rule-based approaches before running the tool. The proposed method allows us to proactively address automatic test-case generation failures and start manual test-case generation in parallel. Through a case study, we verified that the proposed method is effective in reducing the total time required to generate test cases. |
