- Abstract:
- Most modern instruments of measurement for science, engineering, and commerce have embedded software. Also, software is required for mathematical computations. Therefore testing, verification, and validation of software used in metrology is important. Combinatorial testing is a versatile methodology which could be useful for many testing situations. It is based on the insight that while the behaviour of a software system may be affected by a large number of factors, only a few factors are involved in a failure inducing fault. This paper is an introduction to combinatorial testing as an adaptation of design of experiment methods for testing software.
