Design and Implementation of Combinatorial Testing Tools

Abstract

As an effective software testing technique, combinatorial testing has been gradually applied in various types of test practice. In this case, it is necessary to provide useful combinatorial testing tools to support the application of combinatorial testing technique on industrial scenarios, as well as the academic research for combinatorial testing technique. To this end, on the basis of the research results of this group, a suite of combinatorial testing tools has been developed, whose functions include test case generation, test case optimization, and etc. For the requirements from both industrial and academic scenarios, the tools should be configurable, scalable, modular, and etc. This paper gives a brief introduction to the design and implementation of these tools. Keywords—combinatorial testing, combinatorial testing tools, test generation, test prioritization.
