This study introduces a new method for Graphical User Interface (GUI) testing that reduces test cases by 45% and execution time by 38%. This approach enhances software quality assurance efficiency while maintaining high test coverage.

Area of Science:

  • Software Engineering
  • Computer Science

Background:

  • Graphical User Interface (GUI) testing is vital for software quality assurance.
  • Regression testing ensures software stability after changes.
  • Current GUI test execution is time-consuming and resource-intensive.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an efficient test case minimization technique for GUI regression testing.
  • To reduce the number of test cases without sacrificing test coverage.
  • To improve the overall efficiency of GUI testing processes.

Main Methods:

  • Proposed a sequence recording technique for GUI event tracking.
  • Applied K-Means clustering to group similar event sequences.
  • Utilized search-based sequence selection for representative test case subset generation.

Main Results:

  • Reduced the total number of test cases by approximately 45%.
  • Decreased test execution time by 38%.
  • Maintained over 95% coverage compared to the original test suite.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed approach effectively balances testing efficiency and coverage.
  • Offers a practical improvement for GUI regression testing.
  • Demonstrates significant reductions in test cases and execution time.
