ICSE'26 Paper Proposes New Paradigm: In-vivo Fuzzing Without Test Harnesses

moarbugs · x · 2026-07-30

A new research direction in fuzzing was presented at the top software engineering conference ICSE'26. The researchers proposed a novel approach: completely removing traditional test harnesses and code generators.

Instead, they generate configurations and interactions directly with a running system, amplifying the testing effects using in-vivo fuzzing. This method promises to significantly enhance the authenticity and efficiency of software testing.
