A Subsumption Hierarchy of Test Case Prioritization for Composite Services☨

by Lijun Mei, Yan Cai, Student Member, Changjiang Jia, Student Member, Bo Jiang, W. K. Chan, Zhenyu Zhang, T. H. Tse, Senior Member
"... Abstract—Many composite workflow services utilize non-imperative XML technologies such as WSDL, XPath, XML schema, and XML messages. Regression testing should assure the services against regression faults that appear in both the workflows and these artifacts. In this paper, we propose a refinement-o ..."

Prime Numbers Considered Useful: Ontology Encoding for Efficient Subsumption Testing

by Davy Preuveneers, Yolande Berbers , 2006
"... Multiple inheritance hierarchies are frequently used for the classification of concepts into a taxonomy, to model software by organizing classes into an inheritance hierarchy, for querying object-oriented databases, for knowledge representation, policy enforcement, and subtyping of service interface ..."

inheritance hierarchies and argue why these encoding techniques are not feasible for achieving efficient subsumption testing in ontologies. We developed a prime-based encoding technique for subsumption of concepts and properties that outperforms several well-known ontology reasoners for this particular

Test Case Prioritization for Regression Testing of Service-Oriented Business Applications

by Lijun Mei, Zhenyu Zhang, W. K. Chan, T. H. Tse - PROCEEDINGS OF THE 18TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON WORLD WIDE WEB (WWW 2009) , 2009
"... Regression testing assures the quality of modified service-oriented business applications against unintended changes. However, a typical regression test suite is large in size. Earlier execution of those test cases that may detect failures is attractive. Many existing prioritization techniques order ..."

Tag-Based Techniques for Black-Box Test Case Prioritization for Service Testing

by Lijun Mei, W. K. Chan, T. H. Tse, Robert G. Merkel - PROCEEDINGS OF THE 9TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON QUALITY SOFTWARE (QSIC 2009) , 2009
"... A web service may evolve autonomously, making peer web services in the same service composition uncertain as to whether the evolved behaviors may still be compatible to its originally collaborative agreement. Although the peer services may wish to conduct regression testing to verify the original co ..."

Taking advantage of service selection: a study on the testing of location-based web services through test case prioritization

by Ke Zhai - Proceedings of ICWS ’10 , 2010
"... Abstract—Dynamic service compositions pose new verification and validation challenges such as uncertainty in service membership. Moreover, applying an entire test suite to loosely coupled services one after another in the same composition can be too rigid and restrictive. In this paper, we investiga ..."
Abstract - Cited by 7 (5 self) - Add to MetaCart
-of-interest-aware techniques can be significantly more effective than input-guided techniques in terms of the number of invocations required to expose the first failure of a service composition. Keywords—test case prioritization, location-based web ser-vice, service-centric testing, service selection I.

The network society is the social structure characteristic of the Information Age, as tentatively identi ed by empirical, cross-cultural investigation. It permeates most societies in the world, in v ..."

I shall summarize below the main features of these transformations, in a sequential order that does not imply hierarchy of causation in any way. We have entered a new technological paradigm, centred around

Postprint of article in IEEE Transactions on Services Computing (2014), doi: 10.1109/TSC.2014.2322621 Preemptive Regression Testing of Workflow-Based Web Services

by Bo Jiang, Ke Zhai
"... Abstract—An external web service may evolve without prior notification. In the course of the regression testing of a workflow-based web service, existing test case prioritization techniques may only verify the latest service composition using the not-yet-executed test cases, overlooking high-priorit ..."
