ABSTRACT

We propose the use of search based learning from existing open source test suites to automatically generate partially correct test oracles. We argue that mutation testing and n-version computing (augmented by deep learning and other soft computing techniques), will be able to predict whether a program's output is correct sufficiently accurately to be useful.
