This paper deals with a benchmark of automated test generation methods for software testing. The existing methods are usually demonstrated using quite different examples. This makes their mutual comparison difficult. Additionally, the quality of the methods is often evaluated using code coverage or other metrics, such as generated tests count, test generation time, or memory usage. The most important feature -the ability of the method to find realistic errors in realistic applications -is only rarely used. To enable mutual comparison of various methods and to investigate their ability to find realistic errors, we propose a benchmark consisting of several applications with wittingly introduced errors. These errors should be found by the investigated test generation methods during the benchmark. To enable an easy introduction of various errors of various types into the benchmark applications, we created the Testing Applications Generator (TAG) tool. The description of the TAG along with two applications, which we developed as a part of the intended benchmark, is the main contribution of this paper.
