Abstract

Testing is a crucial part in the development of a new product. Due to the change from manual testing to automated testing, companies can rely on a higher number of tests. There are certain cases such as smoke tests where the execution of all tests is not feasible and a smaller test suite of critical test cases is necessary. This prioritization problem has just gotten into the focus of reinforcement learning. A neural network and an XCS classifier system have been applied to this task. Another evolutionary machine learning approach is the XCSF which produces, unlike XCS, continuous outputs. In this work we show that XCSF is superior to both the neural network and XCS for this problem.
