A Survey of the Application of Combinatorial Testing

After more than 30 years of development, combinatorial testing has become an essential method in the field of software testing, which has always been an active field. Through combined coverage, combinatorial testing can detect faults caused by various parameters and their interactions in a software under test. This paper aims to review the development of combinatorial testing and briefly introduce its basic applications. We classifies today's combinatorial testing applications, including those of traditional industry and those of the IT industry. The research-and-application progress of combinatorial testing was investigated with respect to various fields of application, and potential application directions for the future were proposed to provide ideas its the extensive application.
