Research

I am a Research Associate in the CREST centre, Department of Computer Science at University College London. I am working on the FITTEST project. I am also doing a part time PhD here, supervised by Prof. Harman and Dr. Krinke. My research interests are in Software Testing, Clone detection and Mining Software Repositories.

Mutation Testing Repository

Mutation Testing is a fault–based software testing technique that has been widely studied for over three decades. The literature on mutation testing has contributed a set of approaches, tools and empirical studies. This repository aims to provide a full coverage of the publications in the literature on Mutation Testing.
