A metamorphic testing approach for supporting program repair without the need for a test oracle

Test suite based automated program repair (APR) relies on a test oracle to determine the execution result of individual test cases. The applicability of APR techniques, therefore, is limited by the fact that test oracles may not exist. Metamorphic Testing (MT) is a testing approach that, rather than...
