Abstract :
Test data generation is a complicated problem in software testing area and its method and technique are not mature. Program executing method show some advantages for its dynamic feature. But the searching algorithm can not be satisfactory. The paper introduces some methods for improving searching algorithm based on the understanding of typical algorithm. The goal is improving its efficiency and practicability.
