Advances in Automatic Software Testing: Test-Comp 2022
Dirk Beyer
Abstract
Abstract Test-Comp 2022 is the 4th edition of the Competition on Software Testing. Research competitions are a means to provide annual comparative evaluations. Test-Comp focusses on fully automatic software test generators for C programs. The results of the competition shall be reproducible and provide an overview of the current state of the art in the area of automatic test-generation. The competition was based on 4 236 test-generation tasks for C programs. Each test-generation task consisted of a program and a test specification (error coverage, branch coverage). Test-Comp 2022 had 12 participating test generators from 5 countries.
