尽管测试套件对于进行有效的故障定位是必不可少的,但目前还没有做太多工作来研究测试套件如何影响故障定位。本研究进行了系统研究,以更深入地了解它们之间的关系。具体来说,作者的研究揭示了一个有趣的事实,即本地化有效性和测试套件的大小之间没有很强的相关性。此外,他们表明,在测试套件中,(i)不执行错误语句的通过测试用例和失败的测试用例对故障定位有效性有积极影响,而(ii)执行错误语句的通过测试用例对定位性能有负面影响。他们的结果来自对随机抽样测试套件的本地化有效性的大规模实证分析。本研究介绍了研究的细节以及对研究结果的后续调查。他们的工作为故障定位提供了新的视角,并为广泛研究的主题提出了新的研究方向。
Although a test suite is indispensable for conducting effective fault localisation, not much work has been done to study how the test suite impacts fault localisation. This study presents a systematic study for a deeper understanding of their relation. Specifically, the authors' study reveals an interesting fact that there is no strong correlation between localisation effectiveness and the size of the test suite. Furthermore, they show that, in a test suite, (i) the passing test cases that do not execute the faulty statements and the failing test cases have a positive effect on the fault localisation effectiveness, while (ii) the passing test cases that exercise the faulty statements have a negative impact on localisation performance. Their result is drawn from a large-scale empirical analysis on the localisation effectiveness with respect to randomly sampled test suites. This study presents the details of the study and their follow-up investigation on the findings. Their work provides a new perspective on fault localisation and suggests fresh directions of research on an extensively studied topic.
