Abstract :
The software engineering community has produced great techniques for software maintainability, however, less effort is dedicated to have unit tests modular and extensible. TestSurgeon is a profiler for unit tests which collects information from tests execution. It proposes a metric for similarity between tests and provides a visualization to help developers restructure their unit tests.
