Information: |
Poor software quality continues to be an issue. In 2002 the National Institutes of Standards reported that up to $59 billon is being lost in the US economy each year due the lack of a sufficient quality infrastructure. In this course we examine one aspect of ensuring software quality -- software testing. We will learn about the fundamentals of software testing and study current research from topics such as event driven system testing, GUI testing, combinatorial testing, configuration-aware testing and database testing and object oriented testing. In addition we may study special topics as time allows such as testing for security specific faults, test generation and testing of end-user software. The course is a topics-based course. We will read several papers on each topic chosen during the semester. Topics selected will customized based on current research trends and the mix of the students in this course. This course is in the applications track. The course will have a substantial independent project and will
require strong class participation.
