Abstract
Test engineers are often faced with the challenge of selecting test cases that maximize the chance of discovering faults while working within a limited budget. The input space of the system under test (SUT) may be large, or the cost of executing the SUT for each input may be high. In any event, exhaustive testing is usually impossible, and so the engineer is faced with the challenge of sampling from the input space in such a way that the budget is not exceeded and the chance of discovering faults is high. Combinatorial testing is an approach to selecting test cases that seeks to address this challenge. This article introduces readers to the testing approach known as combinatorial testing.
