   ABSTRACT     = {As the Internet of Things (IoT) grows, its failures may 
      have dramatic consequences on the lives of people who depend on it. 
      Yet, it is hard to test IoT systems before they are deployed. Several 
      researchers have provided state-of-the-art approaches for testing IoT 
      systems. However, many of those approaches are based on academia 
      rather than industry. Therefore, we conducted a multi-method study of 
      IoT systems testing in the industry with IoT practitioners. We used 
      three methods: 1 an industry survey, 2 practitioners interviews, and 
      3 analysis of Eclipse IoT surveys. This study focuses on testing IoT 
      systems by industry practitioners. The findings show that 1 testing 
      focuses more on the device, network, and application layers. IoT 
      testing gives more importance to integration testing than acceptance 
      testing. Test coverage is the most important metric, but metrics may 
      vary depending on the project. 2 IoT system testing mainly uses the 
      model-based approach and is often manual or semi-automated, with low 
      adoption of white box testing. Node-RED is commonly used in testing 
      IoT systems, while Amazon AWS IoT is popular for cloud platform 
      testing of IoT devices. 3 Log analysis is the main approach to 
      analyzing the root cause of bugs. 4 The main challenges in IoT 
      testing include the lack of standards, security, connectivity, and 
      reference architecture. Generating test cases and establishing a 
      standard test approach are recommended for further research. This 
      studyfs findings can help IoT practitioners and researchers to 
      identify and tackle challenges in IoT system testing, leading to 
      future research opportunities.}
