Abstract:A classical heuristic in software testing is to reward diversity, which implies that a higher priority must be assigned to test cases that differ the most from those already prioritized. This approach is commonly known as similarity-based test prioritization (SBTP) and can be realized using a variety of techniques. The objective of our study is to investigate whether SBTP is more effective at finding defects than random permutation, as well as determine which SBTP implementations lead to better results.
