• Abstract

  This research project aims to contribute to the area of software testing by proposing new strategies, techniques and criteria to support the development of modern software products. Software development technology evolves ever faster, covering new environments, new application domains, and new architectures. With the increasing need to ensure quality in the software product, it is necessa…

  Study and development of software testing techniques and their applications, AP.R

• Abstract

  This research project focuses on the area of Software Engineering and more specifically software testing. Besides contributing to the advancement of the state of the art and state ofthe practice, proposing techniques and tools for software testing, this project contributes to the development of human resources in the area, through training of undergraduate and postgraduate students, who p…

  Software test and validation: theoretical studies and applications, AP.R

• Abstract

  Applications that uses virtual reality resources or functionality gained popularity due to the vast field of use. It aims to provide the feeling of immersion in the environment, rather than a limited area, such as the simple representation on the screen of a monitor. Despite the benefits that maybe achieved with virtual reality softwares, its implementation mechanisms represent new potent…

  Mutation testing applied to virtual reality environments modeled with scene graph, BP.DR

• Abstract

  Test oracles determine whether a particular execution of a Program under Test (PUT) is correct or not. In automated testing scenarios, test oracles represent an essential mechanism for testing productivity and effectiveness. However, depending on the PUT's output domain, proper oracle automation turns into a challenge, making these systems hard to test. In the literature, these systems ar…

  Test oracle automation for medical image processing of three-dimensional models, BP.MS

• Abstract

  In software development, product quality is directly related to the quality of the development process. Therefore, testing activities performed by methods, techniques and tools are urgently required to improve productivity, quality and reduce costs in software development. The mutation test has high efficacy in the detection of defects and is quite flexible in its application and can be u…

  Quality evaluation of test oracles using mutation, BP.MS

(Only some records are available in English at this moment)

• Abstract

  The process of software development involves a series of activities in which, although the techniques, methods and tools used, errors can still occur in the product. Some activities have been introduced during the development process, including the activities of Verification, Validation and Testing (VV\&T), in order to minimize the occurrence of errors and risk associated. Among the techn…

  A contribution to the definition and automation activity testing for virtual reality systems, BE.EP.DR

• Abstract

  The complexity of some systems output makes its automated test require significant efforts. This sandwich proposal presents a research that addresses to testing oracle automation method to systems with complex output domains. During the sandwich we will evaluate the effectiveness of using testing oracles in complex output domain systems, such as Text-to-speech systems, virtual reality sys…

  Automating test oracles for systems with complex outputs, BE.EP.DR

• Abstract

  It has been noted the growing interest of software developers and users for quality characteristics, which makes the testing activity essential in the process of software development. Moreover, with the growth of new development methodologies like agile processes and test driven development (TDD), it is expected that developers perform increasingly unit test. Still, the knowledge we have …
