TÍTULO DA PALESTRA: Testing of Context-aware Software Systems

RESUMO DA PALESTRA: Context awareness challenges the engineering of contemporary software systems and jeopardises their testing. The variation of context represents a relevant behaviour that deepens the limitations of available software testing practices and technologies. This talk will summarise 7 years of research in this area reviewing the challenges that these systems pose to our engineering practices, the current state of the art and practice.
