Abstract

This is the RCR report of the artifact for the article “Fine-grained Coverage-based Fuzzing.” This report contains scripts and pre-build binary programs to reproduce the results presented in the main article. The artifact is released on Zenodo with DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.7275184. We claim the artifact to be available, functional, and reusable. The technology skills needed to review the artifact are knowing how to use Linux/Unix terminal and a basic understanding of Docker.

Fine-grained Coverage-based Fuzzing
Fuzzing is a popular software testing method that discovers bugs by massively feeding target applications with automatically generated inputs. Many state-of-the-art fuzzers use branch coverage as a feedback metric to guide the fuzzing process. The fuzzer ...
Fuzzing for CPS Mutation Testing
ASE '23: Proceedings of the 38th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software Engineering

Mutation testing can help reduce the risks of releasing faulty software. For such reason, it is a desired practice for the development of embedded software running in safety-critical cyber-physical systems (CPS). Unfortunately, state-of-the-art test data ...
Checked Coverage and Object Branch Coverage: New Alternatives for Assessing Student-Written Tests
SIGCSE '15: Proceedings of the 46th ACM Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education

Many educators currently use code coverage metrics to assess student-written software tests. While test adequacy criteria such as statement or branch coverage can also be used to measure the thoroughness of a test suite, they have limitations. Coverage ...
