This paper surveys on Cloud Based Automated Testing Software that is able to perform Black-box testing, White-box testing, as well as Unit and Integration Testing as a whole. In this paper, we discuss few of the available automated software testing frameworks on the cloud. These frameworks are found to be more efficient and cost effective…

Organizations make use of different tools and methods to test and evaluate software, for quality and appropriateness purposes. However, many organizations are unable to perform multiple testing activities (manual, automation and performance testing), using a single tool. As a result of limitation of some tools, some organizations are hampered in their attempt to test software,…

Combinatorial software testing is regarded as a crucial part when it comes to the software development life cycle. However, it would be impractical to exhaustive test highly configurable software due to limited time as well as resources. Moreover, a combinatorial testing strategy would be to employ input-output-based relations (IORs) due to its benefits versus other…

Building massively parallel applications has become increasingly important with coming Exascale related technologies. For building these applications, a combination of programming models is needed to increase the system’s parallelism. One of these combinations is the dual-programming model (MPI+X) which has many structures that increase parallelism in heterogeneous systems that include CPUs and GPUs. MPI +…

The implemented programs in the MapReduce processing model are focused in the analysis of large volume of data in a distributed and parallel architecture. This architecture is automatically managed by the framework, so the developer could be focused in the program functionality regardless of infrastructure failures or resource allocation. However, the infrastructure state can cause…

Until recent years, code quality was not given due significance, as long as the system produced accurate results. Taking into account the implications and recent losses in critical systems, developers have started making use of static code analysis tools, to assess the eminence of source code in terms of quality. Static code analysis is conducted…

Software is the primary and indispensable entity in our technologically driven world. Therefore, quality assurance, and in particular software testing, represents a vital component in the software development cycle. Throughout the years, many tools have been developed to collect metrics of software that had been implemented. These tools have some differences but continue to play…

In crowdsourcing, selecting the person with suitable expertise is very important; especially since the task requester is not always in direct contact with the worker. Recently, this has become increasingly important particularly when the crowdsourced tasks are complex and require skillful workers (e.g. software development, software testing, vulnerability discovery, and open innovation). In this paper,…
