The Fuzzing Book
Welcome to "The Fuzzing Book"! Software has bugs, and catching bugs can involve lots of effort. This book addresses this problem by automating software testing, specifically by generating tests automatically. Recent years have seen the development of novel techniques that lead to dramatic improvements in test generation and software testing. They now are mature enough to be assembled in a book – even with executable code.
This book is written by Andreas Zeller, Rahul Gopinath, Marcel Böhme, Gordon Fraser, and Christian Holler. As an example, if you are reading this in a Firefox, Chrome, or Edge Web browser, you can do so safely partly because of us, as the very techniques listed in this book have found more than 2,600 bugs in their JavaScript interpreters so far. While we strive for site reliability and availability, we want our users to understand the intent of this service is research and we offer no guarantees of its performance in mission critical uses.
