ABSTRACT
Regression testing is the process of retesting the modified
parts of the software and checking that no new faults have
been created into already existing code. The regression test
suite is typically large and needs an intelligent method to
choose those test cases which will reduce the overall test cost.
In this situation, test case prioritization techniques aim to
improve the effectiveness of regression testing by ordering the
test cases so that the test case with higher priority executed
before lower priority. The main purpose of test case
prioritization is to increase the rate of fault detection.
Basically by using these two approaches, it will take less
execution time to detect more faults and average percentage of
faults detection (APFD) metric would be later on used to
measure test case prioritization effectiveness. A priority based
technique will help in priority based execution for regression
testing. This paper will represent a review of various
regression testing approaches and a surrey on various test
case prioritization techniques using a genetic algorithm with
the goal of minimizing the number of test cases that are likely
to be found during time constrained execution.
Keywords- Regression testing, Test case prioritization,
