Study of Test Cases Prioritization Based on Ant Colony Algorithm

Article Preview

Abstract:

Regression testing is an important activity to ensure the quality of software. In order to improve the efficiency of regression testing, in this paper, the author proposes to reorder test suite based on ant colony algorithm in regression testing, and compare the result with other common sort results. Through experiment, it shows that the method can get the optimal sequence of test cases under the time limit and it has been proven a superior method in both effectiveness and efficiency for test cases prioritization.
