Section Info:
Title: Software Testing, Analysis, and Analytics This course will be a graduate seminar on dynamic and static program analysis along with analytic techniques such as data mining, machine learning, natural language processing, and visualization for finding software faults. A 2002 NIST report estimates that software faults cost the U.S. economy $59.5 billion annually and that improving testing infrastructure could save $22.2 billion. We will discuss techniques and tools that could significantly reduce this cost. The focus will be on analysis of software artifacts, including source code, software models, execution traces, and natural-language software artifacts. Students will get familiar with the technical results as well as with the process of doing research in software testing, analysis, and analytics. The aim is to help students start research in this field or apply its results in their ongoing research. The course readings will include classic papers and current state-of-the-art work. Students will read papers ahead of time, participate in discussions, present at least one paper during the course, and do a research project in small teams or individually. Students will also write a paper describing their project and present their work at the end of the course. In past offerings of this course, a number of students submitted and published papers in various conferences or workshops based on their course projects. Grading will be based on participation, presentation, and project. The final project will contribute the most to the grades. Prerequisites: Students should have basic knowledge of software engineering and programming languages. If you are not sure whether you can attend this course, please consult the instructor.
