“…The approach produced clusters of files which tend to modify together historically and these clusters merged with test cases information that resulted in a matrix which was multiplied by a vector indicating a system change for test case prioritization. Alsmadi and Alda [24] proposed various approaches for test case selection to perform regression testing of web services. Test case selection aims to select a subset of test cases from test suite according to some performance criteria or some objective function.…”

The main aim of regression testing is to test the modified software during maintenance level. It is an expensive activity, and it assures that modifications performed in software are correct. An easiest strategy to regression testing is to re-test all test cases in a test suite, but due to limitation of resource and time, it is inefficient to implement. Therefore, it is necessary to discover the techniques with the goal of increasing the regression testing's effectiveness, by arranging test cases of test suites according to some objective criteria. Test case prioritization intends to arrange test cases in such a manner that higher priority test cases execute earlier than test cases of lower priority according to some performance criteria. This paper presents an approach to prioritize regression test cases based on three factors which are rate of fault detection [6], percentage of fault detected and risk detection ability. The proposed approach is compared with different prioritization techniques such as no prioritization, reverse prioritization, random prioritization, and also with previous work of kavitha et al [6], using APFD (average percentage of fault detected) metric. The results represent that proposed approach outperformed all approaches mentioned above.

Software testing is one of the important stages of software development. In software development, developers always depend on testing to reveal bugs. In the maintenance stage test suite size grow because of integration of new technique. An addition of new technique force to create new test case which increase the size of test suite. In regression testing new test case may be added to the test suite during the whole testing process. These additions of test cases create possibility of presence of redundant test cases. Due to limitation of time and resource, reduction techniques should be used to identify and remove them. Research shows that a subset of the test case in a suit may still satisfy all the test objectives which is called as representative set. Redundant test case increase the execution cost of the test suite, in spite of NP-completeness of the problem there are few good reduction techniques have been available. In this paper a new approach for test case reduction is proposed. This algorithm use genetic algorithm technique iteratively with varying chromosome length to reduce test case in a test suit by finding a representative set of test cases that are fulfill the testing criteria.

“…This service composition may change the service composition structure. So, there is a need to test the service after each evolution and need to generate the test cases that can test the new composite service [7]. Many different third parties are involved to provide services in SOA environments.…”

Service-Oriented Architecture is dynamic and heterogeneous in nature. The web service is the common technology to implement SOA. Major concerns in web services are their reliability and fault free implementation. There is rapid evolution in web services to meet client needs and full-fill business goals. So, testing is necessary for web services. This paper proposes a novel testing framework to test SOA based services. Our propose testing framework explain different testing aspects like-fault handling, selection of test cases for different versions of the same service and finalize the test cases. The propose testing framework also focuses on test report generation and explain the role of service provider during SOA testing.
