Simone R. S. Souza received a Bachelor degree in Informatics from State University of Ponta Grossa (UEPG) in 1990 and an MSc in Mathematics and Computer from ICMC/USP in 1996. She received her PhD from IFSC/USP in 2000, working with testing of formal specifications. She was a lecturer at UEPG for 14 years (1991/2005). Since 2005 she is an assistant professor at ICMC/USP - São Carlos, where she develops her research in the Laboratory of Software Engineering (LABES). She was an Academic Visitor at the University of Southampton/UK (2010/2011), working in testing of concurrent programs. Simone R. S. Souza teaches courses for undergraduate and graduate students, such as: software engineering, software testing and inspection, systematic review in software engineering and introduction to computer science. She is a supervisor in PhD and MSc Programs at the ICMC/USP. Her research interests are software testing, concurrent program testing, software quality and experimentation in software testing.

A Proficiency Test consists of evaluating the performance of a set of participants based on pre-established criteria. It is generally applied in contexts where bodies that carry out the conformity assessment of a given product need to have the competence of the participants demonstrated through an inter-comparison. Although Proficiency Tests have very well-defined methods and procedures i…
Software testing activity is imperative to improve the quality of a software product. However, finding a set of test data that satisfies a given test criterion is not a trivial task because the domain can be large and different test sets can be satisfactory solutions. Testing concurrent programs in addition to presenting the sequential program problems yet, for example, can address the pr…
In general, the choice of testing technique to be adopted in a concurrent software project remains based on the knowledge of the tester and often does not consider all the testing techniques available. In a previous project, we have defined a framework for supporting the systematic selection of concurrent software testing techniques. For this, a characterization scheme was proposed and im…

Concurrent software testing has been intensively investigated, presenting a wide range of testing techniques and tools. However, there is not yet a consolidated body of evidence that enables developers of concurrent applications in academy or industry select from so many techniques available, which shows the best cost/benefit when it is incorporated into the organization's testing activit…
