一句话：基于 Facebook 部署 Sapienz 的经验，提出软件测试尤其是基于搜索的软件测试的四个开放挑战。
本文是一篇特邀报告论文，基于团队在 Facebook 部署 Sapienz 系统的经验，梳理软件测试特别是基于搜索的软件测试（Search Based Software Testing）面临的四个开放挑战。作者从工业级自动化测试设计的实践中提炼问题，指出这些挑战不仅限于该部署场景，也可能具有更普遍的意义，从而为研究社区提供机会，以回应工业界对自动化测试设计日益增长的兴趣。文章的重点在于提出问题与研究方向，而非给出新的算法或实验评估。
This paper outlines 4 open challenges for Software Testing in general and Search Based Software Testing in particular, arising from our experience with the Sapienz System Deployment at Facebook. The challenges may also apply more generally, thereby representing opportunities for the research community to further benefit from the growing interest in automated test design in industry.
