Nowadays many researchers have proposed different methods to generate test data using genetic algorithm for a specified path.Existing methods primarily focus on the path coverage for sequential programs testing.An approach to construct the fitness function for test case generation in concurrent programs testing is provoked.This approach evaluates the fitness values of the test case by assessing the similarity between the path exercised by a generated input data and the target concurrent path.Algorithm for the fitness function is proposed.Studies indicate that this approach provides guidance for seeking the test case covering small probability target path, and generates fitness function for each target path automatically.
