Abstract :
We propose the use of a greedy heuristic in finding a subset of test cases from the set of all unique true points so that it satisfies the multiple unique true points (or MUTP) strategy. Moreover we report an empirical study on the effectiveness of the greedy heuristic in finding a set of test cases that satisfies the MUTP strategy
