Combinatorial Testing in Software Projects

Software systems continuously grow in size and code complexity, the latter most evident through greater component interconnectedness. This leaves more space for bugs which introduce risks such as exposure to security threats. Combinatorial testing looks for interaction failures in order to improve the system security and effectiveness guarantees. One of the most effective test selection approaches under combinatorial testing are experimental design extensions for software testing. Covering array test sets are compact while maintaining at the same time complete combinatorial coverage up to the desired level. Smaller test sets with customizable level of assurance can drive testing costs down substantially. The paper presents a survey of research into combinatorial testing suite factors while also identifying possible future research ideas.
