Description
The course deals with search-based algorithms and their usage for automated software testing. We will consider techniques to automatically fuzz the code and we will see applications of search-based algorithms for automated test case generation. Then, we will consider AI-based techniques for testing in different domains, including grammar based software, web applications, and GUI based systems. The individual project is a major component of this course: students will develop a search-based test case generator for Python.
Objectives
This course deals with search-based algorithms used to automate software testing tasks such as test case generation.
Teaching mode
In presence
Learning methods
Students will be involved in practical exercises and will experiment with the presented techniques by applying them to the course project.
