Abstract

Artificial immune operators play an important role in the application of immunity, how to design immune operators to support the test case generation method based on the principle of immunity deserves our investigation. Therefore, on the basis of artificial immunity principle, some immune operators that can be used in software test case generation are proposed in this paper. By comparing experiments using artificial immune algorithm and experiments based on genetic algorithms, the efficiency of the immune operators applied in test case generation method is verified in this paper.
