Title
Test refactoring : a research agenda
Author
Abstract
Research on software testing generally focusses on the e↵ectiveness of test suites to detect bugs. The quality of the test code in terms of maintainability remains mostly ignored. However, just like production code, test code can su↵er from code smells that imply refactoring opportunities. In this paper, we will summerize the state-of-the-art in the field of test refactoring. We will show that there is a gap in the tool support, and propose future work which will aim to fill this gap.
