A qualitative and quantitative analysis of the South African tax system, 1995-2005
… the development of qualitative and quantitative testing frameworks, based on the collation of international experience and the adaptation of existing methodologies to the domestic context.

AV-FUZZER: An automated fuzzing framework for safety testing of autonomous vehicles
… In the meanwhile, the focus of this thesis is on testing methodologies, AV-Fuzzer and the other two existed testing frameworks.

Smart prediction for test smell refactorings.
… the test code quality, thus harming software testing and maintenance activities. Software refactoring has been a key practice to handle smells and improve software quality without changing its behavior. However, existing refactoring tools target production code with very different …

Statistical Gems in AI: Toward Reliable and Efficient Intelligence
… these systems. We demonstrate how hypothesis testing, coupling methods, and conformal inference can ensure that advanced artificial intelligence (AI) models operate with safety, fairness, and efficiency. First, we design hypothesis-testing frameworks that distinguish genuine reasoning from …

Test suite parallelization in open-source projects: a study on its usage and impact
Testing is a costly process but essential in the development process. Complex systems may contain long-running test suites. Dealing with high testing costs remains an important problem in Software Engineering despite being under active research for years. Test suite parallelization is an important …

Three Essays on Econometric Analysis
… and the conventional nonparametric significance testing frameworks. In chapter 3, a bootstrap test statistic is proposed to test the validity of imposing some arbitrary restrictions on higher order derivatives of a regression function. We use data sharpening method to enforce the desired …

Forecasting Wind Direction Across Very Short and Short Term Time Horizons for Wind Turbine Control
… demonstrated inconsistent results across the testing frameworks employed in this thesis, suggesting that future work should continue evaluating models’ performance across heights. Future work should also further develop deterministic and stochastic, data-driven strategies for wind direction …

Test-driven development of embedded control systems: application in an automotive collision prevention system
… development is the availability of an automated testing framework as tests are executed very often. Such testing frameworks have been developed for nearly all programming languages, but not for the graphical, signal driven language Simulink. Simulink is commonly used in the automotive industry …

A Lightweight Approach of Human-Like Playtest for Android Apps
Testing is recognized as a key and challenging factor that can either boost or halt the game development in the mobile game industry. On one hand, manual testing is expensive and time-consuming, especially the wide spectrum of device hardware and software, so called fragmentation, significantly …

Automated blackbox GUI specifications enhancement and test data generation
… approaches have been shown to be effective in testing of such applications, most existing techniques produce many infeasible event sequences used as GUI test cases. This happens primarily because the behavioral specifications of the GUI under test are ignored. In this dissertation we present an …

Supporting Effective Reuse and Safe Evolution in Metadata-Driven Software Development
… application concerns are provided as third-party frameworks and libraries that the programmer configures through metadata, such as XML configuration files or Java annotations. Metadata-driven software development is a special case of declarative programming: metadata serves as a domain-specific …

Efficient testing of actor programs with non-deterministic behaviors
… non-determinism brings significant challenges in testing techniques; to make sure that an actor program is correct, conceptually all possible interleavings of message receives should be explored. However, exploring all possible interleavings is not practical because the number of interleavings …
