Performance metamorphic testing: motivation and challenges

Content Provider ACM Digital Library
Author Segura, Sergio Durán, Amador Ruiz-Cortés, Antonio Troya, Javier
Abstract Performance testing is a challenging task mainly due to the lack of test oracles, that is, mechanisms to decide whether the performance of a program under a certain workload is either acceptable or poor due to a performance bug. Metamorphic testing enables the generation of test cases in the absence of an oracle by exploiting the relations (so-called metamorphic relations) between the inputs and outputs of multiple executions of the program under test. In the last two decades, metamorphic testing has been successfully used to detect functional faults in a variety of domains, ranging from web services to simulators. However, the applicability of metamorphic testing to detect performance bugs is a topic that remains unexplored. In this vision paper, we introduce Performance Metamorphic Relations (PMRs) as expected relations between the performance measurements of multiple executions of the program under test. We hypothesize that these relations can be turned into assertions for the automated detection of performance bugs removing the need for complex benchmarks and domain experts guidance. As a further benefit, PMRs can be turned into fitness functions to guide search-based techniques on the generation of test data that violate the relations, revealing bugs. This novel idea is motivated with examples and an overview of some of the challenges in this promising topic.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
