Abstract :
It is a common belief that good software tools are necessary to support both research and education in software engineering. The authors document their experience, in support of this belief, with two data flow testing tools named ASSET and ATAC and one mutation testing tool named MOTHRA. These tools have been in use at Purdue University in research projects related to software testing and reliability. The tools have also been used in both undergraduate and graduate courses in software engineering
