Abstract

In the field of software engineering, different applications have been developed. An application requires changes due to changes in the customer requirements. Regression testing has to be performed for the validation of data modification. Various test cases have to be developed to perform the regression testing. In this paper, various test case prioritization techniques have been discussed for the generation of priority of test suites and regression testing approaches provide information about which strategies have to be followed or not.
