"Test early, test often" is a mantra that concerns unit testing as well. However, in practice, not many software projects have the luxury of a decent and up-to-date unit test suite. This may change, especially for embedded systems, as the demand for delivering quality software continues to grow. International standards, like IEC-61508-3, ISO/DIS-26262, or DO-178B, demand module testing for a given functional safety level. Unit testing at the module level helps to achieve this requirement. Yet, even if functional safety is not a concern, the cost of a recall—both in terms of direct expenses and in lost credibility—justifies spending a little more time and effort to ensure that our released software does not cause any unpleasant surprises. In this article, we will show how to prepare, maintain, and benefit from setting up unit tests for a simplified simulated ASR module. We will use a Keil evaluation board MCBSTM32E with Cortex-M3 MCU, MDK-ARM with the new ULINK Pro debug and trace adapter, and Parasoft C++test Unit Testing Framework.

  • Unit Testing Is a Level of Software Testing Where Individual Units/ Components of a Software Are Tested. the Purpose Is to Valid
    Unit Testing is a level of software testing where individual units/ components of a software are tested. The purpose is to validate that each unit of the software performs as designed. A unit is the smallest testable part of software. It usually has one or a few inputs and usually a single output. In procedural programming a unit may be an individual program, function, procedure, etc. In object-oriented programming, the smallest unit is a method, which may belong to a base/ super class, abstract class or derived/ child class. (Some treat a module of an application as a unit. This is to be discouraged as there will probably be many individual units within that module.) Unit testing frameworks, drivers, stubs, and mock/ fake objects are used to assist in unit testing. METHOD Unit Testing is performed by using the White Box Testing method. When is it performed? Unit Testing is the first level of testing and is performed prior to Integration Testing. BENEFITS Unit testing increases confidence in changing/ maintaining code. If good unit tests are written and if they are run every time any code is changed, we will be able to promptly catch any defects introduced due to the change. Also, if codes are already made less interdependent to make unit testing possible, the unintended impact of changes to any code is less. Codes are more reusable. In order to make unit testing possible, codes need to be modular. This means that codes are easier to reuse. Development is faster. How? If you do not have unit testing in place, you write your code and perform that fuzzy ‘developer test’ (You set some breakpoints, fire up the GUI, provide a few inputs that hopefully hit your code and hope that you are all set.) If you have unit testing in place, you write the test, write the code and run the test.

  • Testing and Debugging Tools for Reproducible Research
    Testing and debugging Tools for Reproducible Research Karl Broman Biostatistics & Medical Informatics, UW–Madison kbroman.org github.com/kbroman @kwbroman Course web: kbroman.org/Tools4RR We spend a lot of time debugging. We’d spend a lot less time if we tested our code properly. We want to get the right answers. We can’t be sure that we’ve done so without testing our code. Set up a formal testing system, so that you can be confident in your code, and so that problems are identified and corrected early. Even with a careful testing system, you’ll still spend time debugging. Debugging can be frustrating, but the right tools and skills can speed the process. "I tried it, and it worked." 2 This is about the limit of most programmers’ testing efforts. But: Does it still work? Can you reproduce what you did? With what variety of inputs did you try? "It's not that we don't test our code, it's that we don't store our tests so they can be re-run automatically." – Hadley Wickham R Journal 3(1):5–10, 2011 3 This is from Hadley’s paper about his testthat package. Types of tests ▶ Check inputs – Stop if the inputs aren't as expected. ▶ Unit tests – For each small function: does it give the right results in specific cases? ▶ Integration tests – Check that larger multi-function tasks are working. ▶ Regression tests – Compare output to saved results, to check that things that worked continue working. 4 Your first line of defense should be to include checks of the inputs to a function: If they don’t meet your specifications, you should issue an error or warning.

  • The Art, Science, and Engineering of Fuzzing: a Survey
    1 The Art, Science, and Engineering of Fuzzing: A Survey Valentin J.M. Manes,` HyungSeok Han, Choongwoo Han, Sang Kil Cha, Manuel Egele, Edward J. Schwartz, and Maverick Woo Abstract—Among the many software vulnerability discovery techniques available today, fuzzing has remained highly popular due to its conceptual simplicity, its low barrier to deployment, and its vast amount of empirical evidence in discovering real-world software vulnerabilities. At a high level, fuzzing refers to a process of repeatedly running a program with generated inputs that may be syntactically or semantically malformed. While researchers and practitioners alike have invested a large and diverse effort towards improving fuzzing in recent years, this surge of work has also made it difficult to gain a comprehensive and coherent view of fuzzing. To help preserve and bring coherence to the vast literature of fuzzing, this paper presents a unified, general-purpose model of fuzzing together with a taxonomy of the current fuzzing literature. We methodically explore the design decisions at every stage of our model fuzzer by surveying the related literature and innovations in the art, science, and engineering that make modern-day fuzzers effective. Index Terms—software security, automated software testing, fuzzing. ✦ 1 INTRODUCTION Figure 1 on p. 5) and an increasing number of fuzzing Ever since its introduction in the early 1990s [152], fuzzing studies appear at major security conferences (e.g. [225], has remained one of the most widely-deployed techniques [52], [37], [176], [83], [239]). In addition, the blogosphere is to discover software security vulnerabilities. At a high level, filled with many success stories of fuzzing, some of which fuzzing refers to a process of repeatedly running a program also contain what we consider to be gems that warrant a with generated inputs that may be syntactically or seman- permanent place in the literature.

  • Introduction to Unit Testing
    INTRODUCTION TO UNIT TESTING In C#, you can think of a unit as a method. You thus write a unit test by writing something that tests a method. For example, let’s say that we had the aforementioned Calculator class and that it contained an Add(int, int) method. Let’s say that you want to write some code to test that method. public class CalculatorTester { public void TestAdd() { var calculator = new Calculator(); if (calculator.Add(2, 2) == 4) Console.WriteLine("Success"); else Console.WriteLine("Failure"); } } Let’s take a look now at what some code written for an actual unit test framework (MS Test) looks like. [TestClass] public class CalculatorTests { [TestMethod] public void TestMethod1() { var calculator = new Calculator(); Assert.AreEqual(4, calculator.Add(2, 2)); } } Notice the attributes, TestClass and TestMethod. Those exist simply to tell the unit test framework to pay attention to them when executing the unit test suite. When you want to get results, you invoke the unit test runner, and it executes all methods decorated like this, compiling the results into a visually pleasing report that you can view. Let’s take a look at your top 3 unit test framework options for C#. MSTest/Visual Studio MSTest was actually the name of a command line tool for executing tests, MSTest ships with Visual Studio, so you have it right out of the box, in your IDE, without doing anything. With MSTest, getting that setup is as easy as File->New Project. Then, when you write a test, you can right click on it and execute, having your result displayed in the IDE One of the most frequent knocks on MSTest is that of performance.

    Joni Korpi Adaptive Web Design As applied to the design process of a web application Metropolia University of Applied Sciences Bachelor of Engineering Media Technology Bachelor’s Thesis 16.3.2012 Abstract Author Joni Korpi Title Adaptive Web Design As applied to the design process of a web application Number of Pages 36 pages Date 18.3.2012 Degree Bachelor of Engineering Degree Programme Media Technology Specialisation option Digital Media Instructors Aarne Klemetti, Senior Lecturer Harri Airaksinen, Principal Lecturer This thesis explored the usage of adaptive web design techniques in the design process of a reservation and inventory management web application, New Reserve. It attempted to uncover issues a designer is likely to face when moving from a tradi- tional web design process to an adaptive one. Most issues uncovered were related to keeping visual design appealing and attempt- ing to support multiple input methods, such as touch screens and mice, at the same time. Using a fluid grid for visual design was found to be difficult, as they caused problems when elements start stretching beyond their optimal maximum dimensions, and when element dimensions are determined in a mix of percentage units and absolute units. Intentionally leaving empty space in wide designs and using the alternative "border-box" model were found to alleviate these problems. Using the "Mobile First" approach for design was found to be recommended, as the amount of mobile internet users is set to overtake desktop internet users very soon. The approach also helps in keeping designs cruft-free. Making images adapt to mo- bile sizes and bandwidth restrictions was found to be difficult, but there is hope for a standards-based technique to deal with this in the near future.
