Previous studies showed that adaptive random testing is an effective alternative to random testing method, but requires additional overheads to evenly spread test cases. Mirroring was introduced to reduce the overheads of adaptive random testing. This paper is the follow-up work to a previous study on the integration of mirroring and adaptive random testing, namely the mirror adaptive random testing. It studies characteristics and effectiveness of mirror adaptive random testing in depth, and provides guidelines on how to apply mirror adaptive random testing in practice.
