IDENTIFYING INPUTS FOR AUTOMATED COMPUTER-PROGRAM TESTING OPERATIONS

According to an aspect of an embodiment, a method of identifying inputs for automated computer-program testing operations may include obtaining a first input for a computer-readable program that is used during execution of the computer-readable program to cause the computer-readable program to take a first path during execution of the computer-readable program. The method may also include obtaining a second input for the computer-readable program that is used during execution of the computer-readable program to cause the computer-readable program to take a second path during execution of the computer-readable program. The method may also include identifying a sequence of values that is common to both the first input and the second input. The method may also include generating a third input that includes the sequence of values and a new value, the third input configured to be used during execution of the computer-readable program.
