SOFTWARE UNDER TEST DALAM PENELITIAN SOFTWARE TESTING: SEBUAH REVIEW
Software under Test (SUT) is an essential aspect of software testing research activities. Preparation of the SUT is not simple. It requires accuracy, completeness and will affect the quality of the research conducted. Currently, there are several ways to utilize an SUT in software testing research: building an own SUT, utilization of open source to build an SUT, and SUT from the repository utilization. This article discusses the results of SUT identification in many software testing studies. The research is conducted in a systematic literature review (SLR) using the Kitchenham protocol. The review process is carried out on 86 articles published in 2017-2020. The article was selected after two selection stages: the Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria and the quality assessment. The study results show that the trend of using open source is very dominant. Some researchers use open source as the basis for developing SUT, while others use SUT from a repository that provides ready-to-use SUT. In this context, utilization of the SUT from the software infrastructure repository (SIR) and Defect4J are the most significant choice of researchers
Victoria Amazonica Optimization (VAO): An Algorithm Inspired by the Giant Water Lily Plant
The Victoria Amazonica plant, often known as the Giant Water Lily, has the
largest floating spherical leaf in the world, with a maximum leaf diameter of 3
meters. It spreads its leaves by the force of its spines and creates a large
shadow underneath, killing any plants that require sunlight. These water
tyrants use their formidable spines to compel each other to the surface and
increase their strength to grab more space from the surface. As they spread
throughout the pond or basin, with the earliest-growing leaves having more room
to grow, each leaf gains a unique size. Its flowers are transsexual and when
they bloom, Cyclocephala beetles are responsible for the pollination process,
being attracted to the scent of the female flower. After entering the flower,
the beetle becomes covered with pollen and transfers it to another flower for
fertilization. After the beetle leaves, the flower turns into a male and
changes color from white to pink. The male flower dies and sinks into the
water, releasing its seed to help create a new generation. In this paper, the
mathematical life cycle of this magnificent plant is introduced, and each leaf
and blossom are treated as a single entity. The proposed bio-inspired algorithm
is tested with 24 benchmark optimization test functions, such as Ackley, and
compared to ten other famous algorithms, including the Genetic Algorithm. The
proposed algorithm is tested on 10 optimization problems: Minimum Spanning
Tree, Hub Location Allocation, Quadratic Assignment, Clustering, Feature
Selection, Regression, Economic Dispatching, Parallel Machine Scheduling, Color
Quantization, and Image Segmentation and compared to traditional and
bio-inspired algorithms. Overall, the performance of the algorithm in all tasks
is satisfactory.Comment: 45 page
