Nagendra Pratap Singh, Rishi Mishra, Rajit Ram Yadav . Analytical Review of Test Redundancy Detection Techniques. International Journal of Computer Applications. 27, 1 ( August 2011), 30-33. DOI=10.5120/3266-4413
This paper presents an analytical review of approaches used by different authors. Coverage information is very important for finding redundancy in test cases. Test redundancy detection reduces the costs of testing and maintenance of software. A redundant test case is a useless part of test suite and it increases the testing cost and test suite size. There are a lot of works that proposed different approaches for test case redundancy detection. Some effective approaches have analysed and this study is very useful for future work in this direction. Some important factors like false positive error, fault detection effectiveness etc. have discussed.
