Abstract
Random testing has been controversial throughout the
history. In the early 70s opinions about random testing
were divided: Girard and Rault (1973) call it a valuable
test case generation scheme [11]. This is confirmed by
Thayer, Lipow and Nelson (1978) in their book on software
reliability [21] they say it is the necessary final step
in the testing activities. However, Glenford Myers (1979)
in his seminal work on the art of Software Testing [18]
denominates random testing as probably the poorest
testing method.
