  1. SeqMap and three of its mutants were tested against five batches of test cases, which are labeled as 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Each pair of test cases that detects a violation of a MR in a program is labeled by its batch in the respective cell in the table. For example, the label '1,4' in the cell [SM18, MR1(c)] indicates that SM18 violates MR1(c) according to the test cases in batch 1 and batch 4.
