Recently, scientists have had to retract publications due to errors caused by software faults. Systematic testing can identify such faults in code.\n  Objective: This study aims to identify specific challenges, proposed solutions, and unsolved problems faced when testing scientific software.\n  Method: We conducted a systematic literature survey to identify and analyze relevant literature.
