My current research is mainly focused on designing, evaluating and improving ways for developing quality software through better testing. I am currently involved in automating testing by leveraging artificial intelligence in the software testing domain. Moreover, I investigate the cross-project defect prediction process and also evaluate test methods for improving the efficacy of the testing process. As a part of collaborative research, I also continue research in the software engineering education area wherein we largelyi nvestigate the key challenges and possible solutions for betterengineering education.
To date, this research has led 33 Refereed papers published in International Journals and Conference Proceedings. Two Books and one book chapter has also been published by me in reputed international and national publishing houses. I have an h-index of 12 and my articles have been cited 580 times on Google Scholar.
I was General Chair of Conference on Software Engineering and Data Sciences (CoSEDS 2018) organized by North Campus, University of Kashmir. Besides i am co-organizer of Workshop on Software Engineering Education (WESEE) since its inception in 2018. I was student Poster co-chair at 18th Innovations in Software Engineering Conference (ISEC 2025) held at NIT Kurukshetra.
Besides being member of ACM, I am the Senior member of various software engineering societies like SIGSE, IACSIT SES, IAENG SES. I also serve as a reviewer for various journals indexed in WoS and Scopus.I also served in several program committees like A-Test 2015,A-Test 2016, IndiaCom 2017 etc.
