About the journal
Software Testing, Verification and Reliability
See Also: Software Focus
- To document and foster new and useful techniques, methodologies and standards.
- To act as a reference for practicable approaches to problems in the software testing, verification and reliability fields.
- To promote the development and dissemination of sound theoretical foundations for new and established practice.
- To provide a forum for informed debate on the abundant controversial issues.
Contributions can include:
- Research Papers reporting original work, either theoretical or practical, which contribute to an improvement of knowledge, understanding or practice in software testing, verification and reliability. Refereed prior to publication.
- Case Studies describing the experience gained in the introduction or application of a specific method, methodology, technique, policy or tool, which is likely to be of wide interest and practical value to the software testing, verification and reliability community. Refereed.
- Review Papers detailing the most relevant aspects of, and useful results and achievements in, a specific area, or focusing on the various efforts and approaches being adopted in areas of emerging importance. Refereed.
- Short Notes including position papers, outlines of work in progress and relevant minor results. Refereed.
- Letters expressing readers' views on germane topics or, for example, reporting new national/international initiatives in the field.

Instructions to Authors
Initial Manuscript Submission. Submit three copies of the manuscript (including copies of tables and illustrations) to
Dr. Martin R. Woodward (Editor) Department of Computer Science University of Liverpool Chadwick Building Peach Street Liverpool L69 7ZF, UK
or
Professor Lee J. White (North American Editor) Department of Computer Engineering and Science Case Western Reserve University 10900 Euclid Avenue Cleveland, Ohio 44106 USA
Authors must also supply:
· an electronic copy of the final version (see section below),
· a Copyright Transfer Agreement with original signature(s) - without this we are unable to accept the submission, and
· permission grants - if the manuscript contains extracts, including illustrations, from other copyright works (including material from on-line or intranet sources) it is the author's responsibility to obtain written permission from the owners of the publishing rights to reproduce such extracts using the Wiley Permission Request Form. Permission grants should be submitted with the manuscript.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been previously published and should not be submitted for publication elsewhere while they are under consideration by Wiley. Submitted material will not be returned to the author unless specifically requested.
Electronic submission. The electronic copy of the final, revised manuscript must be sent to the Editor together with the paper copy. Disks should be PC or Mac formatted; write on the disk the software package used, the name of the author and the name of the journal. We are able to use most word processing packages, but prefer Word or WordPerfect and TeX or one of its derivatives. Illustrations must be submitted in electronic format where possible. Save each figure as a separate file, preferably in TIFF or EPS format, and include the source file. Write on the disk the software package used to create the figures; we favour dedicated illustration packages over tools such as Excel or Powerpoint.
Manuscript style. The language of the journal is English. All submissions including book reviews must have a title, be printed on one side of the paper, be double-line spaced and have a margin of 3cm all round. Illustrations and tables must be printed on separate sheets, and not be incorporated into the text.
· The title page must list the full title, short title, and names and affiliations of all authors. Give the full address, including email, telephone and fax, of the author who is to check the proofs.
· Include the name(s) of any sponsor(s) of the research contained in the paper, along with grant number(s).
· Supply a summary of up to 150 words for all articles except book reviews. This should be a concise summary of the whole paper, not just the conclusions, and should be understandable without reference to the rest of the paper. It should contain no citation to other published work.
· Include up to six keywords that describe your paper for indexing purposes.
· Program listings should be avoided unless they are essential or add significantly to the discussion. Program material should be supplied as originals on plain paper, and will be reproduced photographically to avoid errors.
Reference style. References should be quoted in the text by name and year within parentheses and listed alphabetically at the end of the paper. All references must be complete and accurate. Online citations should include date of access. If necessary, cite unpublished or personal work in the text but do not include it in the reference list. References should be listed in the following style:
Journals Jin Z, Offutt, AJ. 1998. Coupling-based integration testing. Software Testing, Verification and Reliability 8(3):133-154.
Books Cohen DIA. 1991. Introduction to Computer Theory. Wiley: New York; 1-22.
Illustrations. Supply each illustration on a separate sheet, with the lead author's name and the figure number, with the top of the figure indicated, on the reverse. Supply original photographs; photocopies or previously printed material will not be used. Line artwork must be high-quality laser output (not photocopies). Tints are not acceptable; lettering must be of a reasonable size that would still be clearly legible upon reduction, and consistent within each figure and set of figures. Supply artwork at the intended size for printing.
Copyright. To enable the publisher to disseminate the author's work to the fullest extent, the author must sign a Copyright Transfer Agreement, transferring copyright in the article from the author to the publisher, and submit the original signed agreement with the article presented for publication. A copy of the agreement to be used (which may be photocopied) will be reproduced in each volume of Software Testing, Verification and Reliability. Copies may also be obtained from the journal editor or publisher, or may be printed from this website.
Further Information. Proofs will be sent to the author for checking. This stage is to be used only to correct errors that may have been introduced during the production process. Prompt return of the corrected proofs, preferably within two days of receipt, will minimise the risk of the paper being held over to a later issue. Twenty-five complimentary offprints will be provided to the author who checked the proofs, unless otherwise indicated. Further offprints and copies of the journal may be ordered. There is no page charge to authors.
