The constant modification of software during its life cycle poses many challenges for developers and testers because changes might not behave as expected or may introduce erroneous side effects. For those reasons, it is of critical importance to analyze, test, and validate software every time it changes. The most common method for validating modified software is regression testing, which identifies differences in the behavior of software caused by changes and determines the correctness of those differences. Most research to this date has focused on the efficiency of regression testing by selecting and prioritizing existing test cases affected by changes. However, little attention has been given to finding whether the test suite adequately tests the effects of changes (i.e., behavior differences in the modified software) and which of those effects are missed during testing. In practice, it is necessary to augment the test suite to exercise the untested effects. The thesis of this research is that the effects of changes on software behavior can be computed with enough precision to help testers analyze the consequences of changes and augment test suites effectively. To demonstrate this thesis, this dissertation uses novel insights to develop a fundamental understanding of how changes affect the behavior of software. Based on these foundations, the dissertation defines and studies new techniques that detect these effects in cost-effective ways. These techniques support test-suite augmentation by (1) identifying the effects of individual changes that should be tested, (2) identifying the combined effects of multiple changes that occur during testing, and (3) optimizing the computation of these effects.

Abstract: "Formal verification by model checking has the potential to produce major enhancements in the reliability and robustness of software. However, a shortcoming in most model checking research is the failure to consider how to make the use of model checking routine throughout various stages of software development. This report presents results of the Independent Research and Development (IRAD) project on verification of evolving software conducted at the Software Engineering Institute in 2005. The research conducted as part of the IRAD project considered ways to reduce the effort of subsequent verifications. In particular, it resulted in the development of techniques that exploit the results of previous verification efforts and focus only on the portions of the system that have changed (components).Thus, these new techniques incorporate model checking into development processes in a much less intrusive or cumbersome manner than previous verification techniques. The report presents an automated and compositional procedure to solve the component substitutability problem. The solution contributes two techniques for checking the correctness of software upgrades: (1) a technique based on simultaneous use of overapproximations and underapproximations obtained via existantial and universal abstractions and (2) a dynamic assume-guarantee reasoning algorithm in which previously generated component assumptions are reused and altered 'on the fly' to prove or disprove the global safety properties on the updated system. When upgrades are found to be non-substitutable, the solution generates constructive feedback that shows developers how to improve the components. The substitutability approach has been implemented and validated in the Component Formal Reasoning Technology (COMFORT) model checking tool set. The experimental evaluation of an industrial benchmark demonstrates encouraging results."

This open access book presents the outcomes of the “Design for Future – Managed Software Evolution” priority program 1593, which was launched by the German Research Foundation (“Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG)”) to develop new approaches to software engineering with a specific focus on long-lived software systems. The different lifecycles of software and hardware platforms lead to interoperability problems in such systems. Instead of separating the development, adaptation and evolution of software and its platforms, as well as aspects like operation, monitoring and maintenance, they should all be integrated into one overarching process. Accordingly, the book is split into three major parts, the first of which includes an introduction to the nature of software evolution, followed by an overview of the specific challenges and a general introduction to the case studies used in the project. The second part of the book consists of the main chapters on knowledge carrying software, and cover tacit knowledge in software evolution, continuous design decision support, model-based round-trip engineering for software product lines, performance analysis strategies, maintaining security in software evolution, learning from evolution for evolution, and formal verification of evolutionary changes. In turn, the last part of the book presents key findings and spin-offs. The individual chapters there describe various case studies, along with their benefits, deliverables and the respective lessons learned. An overview of future research topics rounds out the coverage. The book was mainly written for scientific researchers and advanced professionals with an academic background. They will benefit from its comprehensive treatment of various topics related to problems that are now gaining in importance, given the higher costs for maintenance and evolution in comparison to the initial development, and the fact that today, most software is not developed from scratch, but as part of a continuum of former and future releases.
