Metamorphic Relation Generation: State of the Art and Visions for Future Research
<|reference_start|>Metamorphic Relation Generation: State of the Art and Visions for Future Research: Metamorphic testing has become one mainstream technique to address the notorious oracle problem in software testing, thanks to its great successes in revealing real-life bugs in a wide variety of software systems. Metamorphic relations, the core component of metamorphic testing, have continuously attracted research interests from both academia and industry. In the last decade, a rapidly increasing number of studies have been conducted to systematically generate metamorphic relations from various sources and for different application domains. In this article, based on the systematic review on the state of the art for metamorphic relations' generation, we summarize and highlight visions for further advancing the theory and techniques for identifying and constructing metamorphic relations, and discuss potential research trends in related areas.<|reference_end|>
