Abstract

Test coverage is an important metric of software quality, since it indicates thoroughness of testing. In industry, test coverage is often measured as statement coverage. A fundamental problem of software testing is how to achieve higher statement coverage faster, and it is a difficult problem since it requires testers to cleverly find input data that can steer execution sooner toward sections of application code that contain more statements.
