In software development practice, testing accounts for as much as 50% of
the total development effort. It is therefore imperative to reduce the
cost and improve the effectiveness of software testing by automating
the testing process. In the past decades, a great amount of research
effort has been spent on automatic test case generation, automatic
test oracles, etc. Test automation is also becoming an important part of software testing
practice.
The
workshop is the 10th edition of the successful AST workshops held at
ICSE 2006-2014. It will provide researchers and practitioners with a
forum for exchanging ideas, experiences, understanding of the
problems, visions for the future, and promising solutions to the
problems. The workshop will also provide a platform for researchers
and developers of testing tools to work together to identify the
problems in the theory and practice of software test automation and to
set an agenda and lay the foundation for future development.
