Abstract

ICST is the premier conference in all areas related to software testing&#046; The development of a software system involves human judgement and, sometimes, political, legal and social processes&#046; As a result, software testing, verification and validation includes testing, inspections, safety certification, security, privacy and draws upon a wide spectrum of disciplines, including engineering, mathematics and also psychology&#046; Verification and validation touches all aspects of computer science and software engineering research and impacts every software practitioner&#046;<br>ICST seeks to meet these challenges by bringing together researchers and practitioners for a conference that includes all aspects of software testing, verification, and validation&#046; ICST includes research papers, industrial experience reports and presentations, tool demonstrations, and tutorials&#046; For the research papers, ICST seeks high quality original work that has never been published and that advances the state of the art in software testing, verification and validation&#046; For the industrial experience reports, ICST seeks papers and presentations that present real world experience from which others can benefit&#046; Tool demonstrations are also welcome, especially those openly available for others to use&#046; Finally, we are seeking tutorials that are relevant to both practitioners and researchers&#046; See the specific calls for more details&#046; Extended versions of the best papers from ICST conferences are regularly published in special editions of JSTVR&#046;<br>Call For Research Track Papers<br>We invite the submission of high&#8211;quality papers in all areas of software testing, verification, and validation&#046; Research papers should present original and significant work that advances the state of the art&#046;<br>Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:<br>&#8211; Testing theory and practice<br>&#8211; Testing in globally&#8211;distributed organizations<br>&#8211; Model&#8211;based testing<br>&#8211; Model&#8211;driven development and testing<br>&#8211; Domain specific testing, such as:<br>&#8211; Security testing<br>&#8211; Web&#8211;service testing<br>&#8211; Database testing<br>&#8211; Embedded software testing<br>&#8211; Testing concurrent software<br>&#8211; Testing large&#8211;scale distributed systems<br>&#8211; Testing in multi&#8211;core environments<br>&#8211; Validation testing<br>&#8211; Quality assurance<br>&#8211; Model checking<br>&#8211; Metrics and Empirical studies<br>&#8211; Fuzzing<br>&#8211; Inspections<br>&#8211; Testing and analysis tools<br>&#8211; Design for testability<br>&#8211; Testing education<br>&#8211; Technology transfer in testing<br>&#8211; Agile/iterative/incremental testing processes<br>&#8211; Testing of open source and third&#8211;party software<br>&#8211; Software reliability<br>&#8211; Performance and QoS testing<br>&#8211; Standards<br>&#8211; Formal verification<br>&#8211; Experience reports<br>
