The Webpage Archives for Software Testing Examples (WASTE) is a joint effort of four undergraduates belonging to the Department of Systems and Computer Science of Howard University. The WASTE project was implemented in September 1996 in collaberation with HUFAST (Howard University Future Aerospace Science and Technology Center) and The Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR). Its main purpose is to provide a well organized database or soft-bed, containing source code with intent errors. WASTE also aims to improve the development of software testing methodologies.

 The WASTE webpages are maintained by three undergraduate researchers: John Bailey, Frances Uku and Jimmianne Warner, under the supervision of Dr. Ronald Leach, Graduate Professor at Howard University.
