RISK 2015 - 3rd International Workshop on Risk Assessment and Risk-Driven Testing

The objective of the workshop is to bring together industry and science by providing a platform for discussion, interaction and collaboration. Industrial papers should either describe challenges of system or software testing that could trigger future research activities or present comparable results of applying techniques for risk analysis or risk-based testing. Research papers are expected to present promising ideas or possible solutions to industrial challenges in the field of risk-based quality assurance. Submitted papers should cover at least one of the following topics:
Languages for capturing risk information
Formal and semi-formal risk analysis techniques (e.g., FTA, FMEA, etc.)
Continuous risk assessment and testing
Risk-based/risk-oriented testing (including formal verification techniques)
Test-based risk assessment
Best practices/methodologies for integrating risk analysis and testing
Support of standard-compliant quality assurance by risk-based testing (e.g., IEC 61508, ISO 26262, Common Criteria)
Verification and validation of safety-/security-critical systems
Risk-based testing with model-based technologies
Risk-based test automation and tool support
Quality and quality improvement of risk-based test models
Limitations and restrictions of integrated risk analysis and testing, its costs and economic impact
This year’s edition has a special focus on system assurance, in particular methods, techniques, languages and tools for expressing systems assurance cases.
