“…They concluded that the higher the ratio of non-violated metamorphic relations to violated metamorphic relations, the less effective the technique. Aruna et al [142] proposed integrating metamorphic testing with the Ochiai algorithm [143] for fault localisation in dynamic web applications. Five metamorphic relations for a classification algorithm were presented as well as some experimental results.…”

Abstract-A test oracle determines whether a test execution reveals a fault, often by comparing the observed program output to the expected output. This is not always practical, for example when a program's input-output relation is complex and difficult to capture formally. Metamorphic testing provides an alternative, where correctness is not determined by checking an individual concrete output, but by applying a transformation to a test input and observing how the program output "morphs" into a different one as a result. Since the introduction of such metamorphic relations in 1998, many contributions on metamorphic testing have been made, and the technique has seen successful applications in a variety of domains, ranging from web services to computer graphics. This article provides a comprehensive survey on metamorphic testing: It summarises the research results and application areas, and analyses common practice in empirical studies of metamorphic testing as well as the main open challenges.

“… Metamorphic testing (Aruna and Prasad, 2014): This testing is based on obtaining useful information from a test case, even if this test case has not been successful in detecting a fault. This testing technique is used to verify an application output without a complete testing (Aruna and Prasad, 2014). Although a test case did not succeed in detecting a fault, it can still have important information for a software tester.…”

Due to the importance of web application testing techniques for detecting faults and assessing quality attributes, many research papers were published in this field. For this reason, it became essential to analyse, classify and summarise the research in the field. To achieve this goal, this research conducted a systematic mapping study on 98 research papers in the field of web applications testing published between 2008 and 2021. The results showed that the most commonly used web applications testing techniques in literature are model-based testing and security testing. Besides, the most commonly used models in model-based testing are finite-state machines. The most targeted vulnerability in security testing is SQL injection. Test automation is the most targeted testing goal in both model-based and security testing. For other web applications testing techniques, the main goals of testing were test automation, test coverage, and assessing security quality attributes.

“…Generally testing experts will use the oracles to finalize the flaw detection in testing, which are sometimes too difficult to find for some programs of an application [1] called non-testable programs. These non-testable programs may lead to occur vulnerabilities in the given application.…”

Recent advances in computing technologies are increasing the expectations of high accuracy and reliability from sophisticated arithmetic programs. Multi Precision Arithmetic (MPA) plays a vital role in majority of scientific applications, where the accuracy levels are more considerable and even a small mistake may misguide the downstream experimental results. Normal testing strategies rely on test oracles to predict the expected output to compare with target output. Testing of MPA programs is a crucial work with normal testing strategies, due to the complexity of generating oracles to verify the correctness of test outputs. In this paper we propose a novel software testing technique called Metamorphic Testing (MT), to test the nontestable MPA programs with the help of Metamorphic Relations (MRs) to alleviate the oracle problem.MT uses the data diversity technique to generate the follow-up test cases based on the existed successful test cases, which are low cost, scalable, efficient and leads to 'N-Version Programming'. Experimental results are showing that our approach is identifying the hidden errors and improving the testing accuracy by finding more mutants.
