Abstract

In this paper we have described an application of the discrete quantum (inspired) particle swarm optimization (QPSO) technique proposed by Yang, Wang and Jiao [7] to the problem of automated software test data generation. The application has been experimentally evaluated on benchmark programs and results of these experiments are presented. The role of critical QPSO parameters on test data generation performance has been studied and based on the observations an adaptive version (AQPSO) has been designed and its performance compared with QPSO.
