Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMeasuring Test Data Uniformity in Acceptance Tests for the FitNesse and Gherkin NotationsDouglas Hiura Longo, Patrícia Vilain, Lucas Pereira da SilvaThis paper presents two metrics designed to measure the data uniformity of acceptance tests in FitNesse and Gherkin notations. The objective is to measure the data uniformity of acceptance tests in order to identify projects with lots of random and meaningless data. Random data in acceptance tests hinder communication between stakeholders and increase the volume of glue code. The main … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2021 · 7,572 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMeasuring the Relevance of Trajectory Matching and Profile Matching in the Context of Carpooling Computational SystemsMichael Cruz, Hendrik Macedo, Adolfo GuimarãesCarpooling consists of sharing individual vehicle space among people with comparable trajectories. Although there are some software initiatives to help carpooling practice, none of them really implements features similarly to searching for people with similar trajectories and profile. In this study, we propose an innovative approach to generate clusters of users that share similar trajectories and profile for carpooling purposes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 3 Feb 2018 · 8,128 accessesView PDFCite
