Abstract

Testing of bioinformatics software often suffers from the or
acle problem, especially when testing software that analyses
human genome sequencing data. Metamorphic testing has
been proposed to alleviate the oracle problem. Nonethe
less, smaller research or clinical centres may be challenged
by the complexity and resources required to implement a
suitable metamorphic testing framework in practice. This
paper presents a case study on how a cloud-based meta
morphic testing framework can be applied to a widely used
genomic sequencing pipeline, and discusses the future of
implementing large-scale on-demand automated metamorphic testing using cloud-based resources.
