摘要
To develop high-quality software, it is essential to use software testing methods and tools (STMTs) effectively and efficiently. The authors conducted a survey with a wide variety of companies and experts that are involved in software testing in order to identify the current practices and opportunities for improvement of STMTs. The survey results revealed five important findings regarding the current practices of STMTs and opportunities for improvement: low usage rate of STMTs, difficulties owing to alack of STMTs, use of testing tools in a limited manner, demand for interoperability support between methods and tools of software development and testing, and need for guidance to evaluate STMTs or to describe the capabilities of STMTs. These findings and other related results from the survey will be useful for improving STMTs practices and developing software testing tools.
