"Input Test Suites for Program Repair: A Novel Construction Method Base" by Mingyue Jiang, Tsong Yueh Chen et al.
Abstract Test-suite-based automated program repair (APR) techniques acquire information from an input test suite to guide the repair process, aiming to produce a repair that can pass all test cases of the input test suite. Obviously, the input test suite has a critical impact on the repair effectiveness of APR techniques. This article reports on a study of the APR input test suites from a new perspective. We first propose a novel method of constructing the APR input test suites, using information derived from violated metamorphic relations. We then empirically evaluate our construction method...
