Empirical study on strategy for Regression Testing

Software testing plays a necessary role in software development and maintenance. This activity is performed to support quality assurance. It is very common to design a number of testing suite to test their programs manually for most test engineers. To design test data manually is an expensive and labor-wasting process.
Base on this reason, how to generate software test data automatically becomes a hot issue. Most researches usually use the meta-heuristic search methods like genetic algorithm or simulated annealing to gain the test data.
In most circumstances, test engineers will generate the test suite first if they have a new program. When they debug or change some code to become a new one, they still design another new test suite to test it. Nearly no people will reserve the first test data and reuse it.
In this research, we want to discuss whether it is useful to store the original test data.
