Calling all developers who write unit tests! Please would you help my PhD student Firhard Roslan by filling out his questionnaire on developer attitudes to testing private methods? It should take 10-20 mins to complete. Thanks! https://t.co/5eWEKWluPw

We write tests to show us when there are problems with our code. But what if there are intermittent problems with the tests themselves? That can be big hassle. In this episode, we have Gregory...

Was recently asked. "Is Pineapple is a legit topping for Pizza?" As a pizza-eating, native New Yorker, I replied, "Is Pepperoni a legit topping for a Pina Colada?" And the conversation ended there.

Pressing question: What do developer-repaired flaky tests tell us about the effectiveness of automated flaky test detection? Our answer: https://t.co/Ob4LkhwAeC Short: re-running does not find flaky tests that devs fix!

Delighted that my PhD student @oparry9's survey paper of Flaky Tests has appeared in TOSEM!
dl.acm.org
Tests that fail inconsistently, without changes to the code under test, are described as flaky. Flaky tests do not give a clear indication of the presence of software bugs and thus limit the reliab...
