The invention belongs to the field of software testing, aims at the research of task allocation in a crowdsourcing test process, focuses on how to effectively allocate a test task to a proper crowdsourcing worker, comprehensively considers the comprehensive capabilities of candidate crowdsourcing workers in terms of capability, experience, willingness degree, credibility degree and the like by combining the task, gives formal representation of a strategy in detail, and is an effective task allocation method.
Background
The crowdsourcing test is a technology for testing software by utilizing a crowdsourcing idea, and task distributors and task completers are connected together through tasks. The advantages of short test period, low cost and high efficiency, etc., the crowdsourcing test has gained wide attention in the industry and academia. In current testing practice, testing tasks are typically performed by a random set of workers, not all crowdsourced workers are eligible to perform it for a particular testing task, and different testing tasks require different requirements on worker experience, domain knowledge, etc., and unadapted crowdsourced workers may miss real bugs, introduce false bugs, which not only reduces the quality of the test results, but also increases worker employment costs and test report review costs.

FIG. 1 is an overall flow chart of the present invention
Detailed Description
In order to clearly understand the technical contents of the present invention, the detailed procedures and operation details of each step in the framework will be described in detail hereinafter.
1. Capability adaptation value
For test task t, worker capability fitness is evaluated with a score, the higher the score, the higher his task performance fitness. Suppose that a candidate worker participating in task t has w 1 ,w 2 ,...,w N Then for each candidate worker w for I E {1, 2.. N }, then I The capability adaptation values relative to the test task t are:
Figure BSA0000246635450000031
wherein x represents worker w I Number of test reports submitted, S score Indicating worker w I Score of the xth report in the test report submitted, S Tosco Represents the total score of a single report.
2. Empirical fit value
Crowdsourcing workers with more similar experience to the testing task, i.e., workers with more relevant experience, are more likely to find defects. Therefore, we can consider that for the test task t, the worker passes throughThe fitness of the test is evaluated by a numerical value, the higher the numerical value, the higher his fitness for the task to perform. Suppose that a candidate worker participating in task t has w 1 ,w 2 ,...,w N For each candidate worker w of I e {1,2,. N }, then I The empirical fit values with respect to the test task t are:
Figure BSA0000246635450000032
wherein, # TP T Indicates worker w I Number of times of participation in t-test type dependent crowdsourcing tests, N 0 Indicates worker w I Total number of all crowdsourced test campaigns attended.
3. Willingness degree adaptation value
Workers with high initiative are more likely to find defects. In other words, it can be understood that the stronger the willingness of crowdsourcing workers to participate, the greater the probability of discovering defects. Thus we can consider that for the test task t, the worker's willingness to fit is evaluated with the total number of test reports submitted, the higher the number, the higher his task execution fit. Suppose that a candidate worker participating in task t has w 1 ,w 2 ,...,w N Then for each candidate worker w for I E {1, 2.. N }, then I The willingness adaptation values with respect to the test task t are:
S wan (w I ,t)=Sigmoid(#TC t ) (3)
wherein, # TC t Indicating worker w I The total number of test reports submitted in all of the participating crowd-sourced testing activities.
4. Goodness of credit adaptation value
The task allocation mechanism based on credibility may improve the overall test quality, so we can consider that the fitness of the test task t and the worker credibility is evaluated by a numerical value, and the higher the numerical value is, the higher the fitness of the task execution of the test task t and the worker credibility is. Suppose that a candidate worker participating in task t has w 1 ,w 2 ,...,w N Then for each candidate worker w for I E {1, 2.. N }, then I Relative to the testThe reputation adaptation value of the task t is as follows:
Figure BSA0000246635450000033
wherein, # ResgiP I Indicates worker w I Total number of enrollment in crowdsourcing tests, # ActuP I Indicating worker w I The number of times the user actually participates in the crowdsourced test activity.
5. Adaptation factor influencing weights
The task allocation using capacity, experience, willingness degree and credibility degree of the crowdsourcing test are used for evaluating candidate crowdsourcing workers, and factors in each aspect have different influences on task allocation decision. Because, factor influence weight is defined to measure the influence degree of each factor, and omega is used respectively cap ,ω exp ,ω wan ,ω cre And the evaluation weights of the capability, experience, willingness degree and reputation degree are expressed. Each weight value is in the range of [0,1 ]]The sum of the four being 1, i.e. ω capexpwancre And =1. The larger the value is, the larger the influence of the factor is, the value of 0 indicates that the factor does not work, and the value of 1 indicates that the factor plays a decisive role.
The weight of the above influencing factors is generally set by the contracting party, but in practice, the contracting party may have a vague knowledge of the task completion progress and the proportion of the number of workers required in the whole crowdsourcing test activity, and it is difficult to clearly give an accurate value. Based on the above, the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process is used to determine the weight of each two influencing factors described by the contracting party according to the relative importance degree between the two influencing factors, so as to quantify the fuzzy information and help the contracting party to make a correct decision, and the specific operation steps are as follows:
(1) Determining the causal relationship among all factors to construct a multilevel (multi-level) hierarchical structure model, comparing every two of the elements of the same level (level) with the elements of the higher level as a criterion, and judging the relative importance degree to obtain a fuzzy judgment matrix F, namely:
Figure BSA0000246635450000041
wherein,
Figure BSA0000246635450000042
and f is ij +f ji =1,i,j=1,2,...,n,f ij Showing the fuzzy relation of the ith element relative to the jth element of the lower layer.
(2) And (5) calculating the relative importance among the elements in the F, and solving the formula as follows.
Figure BSA0000246635450000043
From this, the weight vector w of the fuzzy judgment matrix F can be calculated F =(w 1 ,w 2 ,...,w n ) T Wherein w is i Is not less than 0 and w 1 +w 2 +…+w n =1。
(3) The above formula was checked for consistency. When the deviation consistency is too large, the calculation result is not reliable as a decision basis. The consistency principle of the fuzzy judgment matrix is checked by adopting the compatibility of the fuzzy judgment matrix in the following method.
a. Compatibility index
If there is a fuzzy judgment matrix
Figure BSA0000246635450000044
And
Figure BSA0000246635450000045
the compatibility indexes of the two are as follows:
Figure BSA0000246635450000051
b. feature matrix
By the formula (6) through W ij =W i W i +W j (i, j =1, 2.. Times.n) is converted to obtain the blurFeature matrix W of judgment matrix F * =(W ij ) n×n
And judging by adopting the compatibility index according to the description F of the task requester on the adaptation factors, wherein when I (F, W) is less than or equal to F, the judgment matrix can be considered to meet the consistency. And the smaller the value of F is, the higher the requirement of the task requester on the consistency of the fuzzy judgment matrix is, and the value of F is usually 0.1. When m (m is more than or equal to 1) decision makers (task requesters) give out fuzzy judgment matrixes with the same adaptive factor, the consistency check work of the fuzzy complementary judgment matrixes needs to meet the following two conditions:
first, m fuzzy judgment matrices F are examined x Satisfactory consistency of (c):
Figure BSA0000246635450000052
wherein
Figure BSA0000246635450000053
Is F x Corresponding to the weight vector.
Second, the satisfactory compatibility between the judgment matrices is checked:
I(F x ,F y ) F is less than or equal to F, x is not equal to y; the above expression of x, y =1,2,. ·, m (9) may indicate that in a case where the fuzzy complementary decision matrix Fx = (x =1,2,. ·, m) is consistently acceptable, their comprehensive decision matrix is also consistently acceptable.
(4) And all the alternative schemes are prioritized by calculating the comprehensive importance degree, so that a scientific decision basis is provided for a decision maker to select an optimal scheme.
6. Comprehensive evaluation value
The calculation of the comprehensive evaluation value is based on the evaluation values of the above various factors, and is used for measuring the comprehensive matching degree of the specific crowdsourcing worker corresponding to the execution of the test task t. For a particular candidate w of a task t to be performed I The integrated evaluation value of (a):
S(w I )=S cap (w I ,t)*ω cap +S exp (w I ,t)*ω exp
+S wan (w I ,t)*ω wan +S cre (w I ,t)*ω cre (10)
i.e. the composite evaluation value is equal to the sum of the products of the respective influencing factor values and their corresponding weights.
