2021 International Contest on Software Testing
The Dallas Chapter of RS in conjunction with the Technical Committee of System and Software
Assurance of RS, and the Department of Computer Science at the University of Texas at Dallas
organized a very successful International Contest on Software Testing on April 24, 2021. The
contest was technically sponsored by Mooctest, Inc.
The contest is one of the most important events organized by the Dallas Chapter every year,
increasing its reputation year after year while becoming an international event. This year, there
were more than 200 contestants from four different countries: USA, India, Brazil, and China.
The contest has two parts:
• The first part was a JUnit tutorial and practice test. Both were made available before the
contest. The objective was to help contestants understand the contest format, the basics of
the JUnit testing framework, as well as the MoocTest online testing platform required to
use during the contest. Each contestant needed to have basic knowledge about Java
programming.
• The second part was the contest (09:00 - 11:30 am, April 24, Central Daylight Time,
USA). The contest was individual-based. Each contestant had to design test cases with
specific input values based on the given source code to test multiple Java programs. The
quality of the generated test cases was measured by the code coverage and mutation score
achieved.
There were the top ten winners of the college group. There was another group for
high school students. Each winner received either a cash award or equivalent-valued gifts
provided by our industry partners. A certificate was presented to every contestant for their
participation. More details can be found at https://swtesting.techconf.org/events/utd2021-spring
