ISSTA 2008

ISSTA is the leading research conference in software testing and analysis, bringing together academics, industrial researchers, and practitioners to exchange new ideas, problems, and experience.

Responding to the growth and impact of our thriving community, ISSTA has changed from its traditional biannual schedule to an annual one. In 2008 ISSTA will be held in Seattle, Washington.

Authors are invited to submit technical papers describing original research in testing or analysis of computer software. Papers describing theoretical or empirical research, new techniques, or in-depth case studies of testing and analysis methods and tools are welcome. Submissions must be original and should not have been published previously or be under consideration for publication while being evaluated for this symposium. Authors of accepted papers will be required to sign an ACM copyright release.

The ISSTA Doctoral Symposium is a forum for Ph.D. students working in the area of software testing and analysis to publicly discuss their research goals, methods, and preliminary results with senior researchers from the software testing and analysis community.

One day Workshops will offer the opportunity for exchanging views and advancing ideas on hot research topics. Held before the main conference, workshops provide a forum for the rapid dissemination of ongoing research activities. Researchers interested in organizing a workshop should submit a proposal by email to the conference chairs:

Technical papers must be prepared in ACM conference format, and must not exceed 11 pages in camera-ready form, including figures and references. All submissions must be in English. Submit your paper via the paper submission website.
