Abstract :
In this paper, a selection sort method of test cases is presented that is according to historical datum from the test cases pools, statistical analysis of test cases based on defect severities and choose the order of test cases and then measure the efficiency by the formula to find the choice of test cases in testing process in order. Finally, the test case is given overall selection method in regression testing. Examples of this method for analysis, experimental results show that the proposed method effectively reduce the number of test cases and improve the efficiency of discovery the defects in regression testing.
