REAL TIME FAULT LOCALIZATION USING COMBINATORIAL TEST DESIGN TECHNIQUES AND TEST CASE PRIORITY SELECTION

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method for test case priority selection includes initiating execution of a set of test cases associated with a system under test. Further, the set of test cases are executed according to a first order of execution, and during the execution, at runtime a failing test case, from the set of test cases is determined. Further, at runtime, from the set of test cases, a subset of test cases that are not yet executed is identified. Further, at runtime, a priority value is assigned to each test case from the subset of test cases, the priority value based on a similarity of the test case with the failing test case. Further, at runtime, the set of test cases is reorganized to execute the subset of test cases in a second order of execution based on priority values that are assigned.
