Test suites can be optimized for more efficient software testing. A software program is instrumented and test cases of a test suite are run against the instrumented target binaries. A set of metrics are identified that can be used to capture a test case's execution and behavior and allow pairs of test cases of a test suite to be compared in a quantifiable manner. Metric values for test case pairs are generated and combined to create one or more unique signature values. Signature values are compared to cluster analogous test cases, allowing for, e.g., the association of comparable test cases, the identification of redundant test cases, and the formation of a test suite subset that can effectively test under time constraints.
