Scope of the Conference
ISSTA is the leading research conference in software testing and
analysis, bringing together academics, industrial researchers, and
practitioners to exchange new ideas, problems, and experience.
The ISSTA program will include TUTORIALS, PAPERS (both regular
and short), and PANELS.
PAPERS describing original research in testing or analysis of computer
software are invited, including but not limited to papers addressing
testing and analysis of particular classes of software.
Papers describing both
theoretical and empirical research as well as reports and in-depth
analysis of experience with methods or tools are welcome.
-
REGULAR PAPERS should clearly present the original contributions made
and should relate the authors work to prior work. Papers should
contain substantive material not previously published or under
consideration for publication elsewhere while under consideration
for ISSTA. The highest quality papers may be considered for publication
in a special issue or section of a research journal.
-
SHORT PAPERS may present work in progress, experience reports,
smaller projects whose description does not require a full paper, or
analyses, reviews and opinions on the state of software testing
practice and research.
Papers should
not be previously published or under
consideration for publication elsewhere while they are being considered
for ISSTA.
Short papers will be evaluated primarily
according to their interest to the testing and analysis community.
PANEL PROPOSALS for panel sessions on current testing and analysis topics are
also invited.
TUTORIAL PROPOSALS for half-day or full-day tutorials on current testing
and analysis topics are invited.
Submission Guidelines
PAPERS must be prepared in ACM conference format. Regular
papers must not exceed 11 pages in camera-ready form, including figures
and references. Short papers must not exceed five pages in camera-ready
form, including figures and references.
Papers must be printable on 8.5x11 paper.
For both regular and
short papers, a separate
abstract must be submitted 1 week before the full paper.
PANEL PROPOSALS must include title, name and contact information of
the organizer, names of panelists, and a one-page description of the
topic. The panelists should have agreed to participate prior to
submission of the proposal.
TUTORIAL PROPOSALS must
include title, name and contact information of the tutor, outline
of the proposed tutorial, and a one-page description of the topic.
All submissions must be in English, and the submission process will be
carried out electronically via the Web.
Regular papers, short papers, panel proposals, and tutorial
proposals must be submitted as
PostScript documents that are interpretable by Ghostscript,
