Unreproducible tests Successes, failures, and lessons in testing and verification Michael D. Ernst
University of Washington

Reproducibility: The linchpin of verification A test should behave deterministically
For detecting failures
For debugging
For providing confidence

A proof must be independently verifiable

Tool support: test frameworks, mocking, capture-replay, proof assistants, …<br>
03
Reproducibility: The linchpin of research Research:
A search for scientific truth
Should be testable (falsifiable) -Karl Popper
Example: evaluation of a tool or methodology

Bad news: Much research in testing and verification fails this scientific standard<br>
