2nd International Workshop on

Software Testing in the Cloud STITC 2010

stilley@cs.fit.edu Saturday, April 10, 2010; 9:00am – 4:00pm Held as part of the 3rd IEEE ICST (Paris, France) Michael McAllister Tauhida Parveen Academic Research Center Dept. of Computer Sciences SAP Florida Institute of Technology michael.mcallister@ tparveen@fit.edu Software testing is an important part of software engineering life cycle. Testing requires resources that are often not readily available, contributing to an inefficient testing process. Running large test suites of test cases can consume considerable time and resources, often precluding their use in an interactive setting.

Cloud computing has gained a significant amount of attention in the last few years. It includes virtualized hardware and software resources that are hosted remotely and made available on-demand using a services model (e.g., SOA). Instead of running or storing applications locally, one can host their application in the cloud and access it from anywhere using a thin client application such as a Web browser. Cloud computing promises to reduce cost by cutting down the need for buying large amount of hardware and software resources. It also promises efficiency, flexibility, and scalability.

Software testing in the cloud (STITC) lies at the intersection of these key areas: software testing, cloud computing, and system migration. According to the National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA), STITC is an area that will grow in importance in the next few years. The STITC 2010 workshop has three distinct facets:

(1) Testing IN the cloud: Leveraging the resources provided by a cloud computing infrastructure to facilitate the concurrent execution of test cases in a virtualized environment.

(2) Testing OF the cloud: Testing applications that are hosted and deployed in a cloud environment.

(3) Migrating testing TO the cloud: Moving the testing process, test assets, and test infrastructure from their current state for testing in the cloud or testing of

the cloud.
