Towards an evolutionary software delivery strategy based on soft systems and risk analysis
D. Greer,David W. Bustard +1 more
- 11 Mar 1996
TL;DR: The techniques developed so far are described, earlier work on how risk analysis might be incorporated in RACE is reviewed and an extension of the method to include evolutionary delivery of proposed changes derived from the method is proposed.

A probabilistic alternative to regression suites
Shady Copty,Shai Fine,Shmuel Ur,Elad Yom-Tov,Avi Ziv +4 more

TL;DR: In this paper, a new regression suite practice, using random test generators to create regression suites on-the-fly, is becoming more common, instead of maintaining tests, they generate test suites on the fly by choosing several specifications and generating a number of tests from each specification. But the main argument against the automation of regression suites, in addition to the cost of creation and maintenance, is the observation that if you run the same test many times, it becomes increasingly less likely to find bugs.

An empirical quality measure based on complexity values
TL;DR: Using McCabe metric, the level of complexity which can be considered dangerous in an industrial software developing context is empirically defined and it is experimentally verified that files whose levels of complexity was over the fixed threshold were statistically fault prone.
