Abstract :
The process of verifying the modified software in the maintenance phase is called Regression Testing. The size of the regression test suite and its selection process is a complex task for regression testers because of time and budget constraints. In this research paper, new Prioritization technique based on hamming distance has been proposed. It is illustrated using an example and found that it produces good results. Average Percentage of Fault Detection (APFD) metrics and charts has been used to show the effectiveness of proposed algorithm.
