Code Coverage uses → 100% 2e evidence

Coverage-guided greybox fuzzing uses code coverage to guide the selection of inputs to save.

Fuzzing Corpus uses → 100% 2e evidence

Coverage-guided greybox fuzzing builds and evolves a corpus of test inputs that maximize code coverage.

Guiding Greybox Fuzzing with Mutation Testing ← compares with 100% 2e evidence

The paper compares mutation-analysis-guided fuzzing against coverage-guided greybox fuzzing.

Mutation-Analysis-Guided Fuzzing ← extends 100% 2e evidence

Mutation-analysis-guided fuzzing extends coverage-guided greybox fuzzing by also saving inputs that improve mutation score.

AFL ← implements 100% 1e evidence

AFL is one of the first tools to popularize coverage-guided greybox fuzzing.

libFuzzer ← implements 100% 1e evidence

libFuzzer is one of the first tools to popularize coverage-guided greybox fuzzing.
