SUMMARYPair-wise testing is an effective test planning technique for finding interaction faults using a small set of test cases. Constraint elicitation is an important process in the pair-wise testing design since constraints determine the test space; however, the constraint elicitation process has not been well studied. It usually requires manual capturing and precise definition of constraints. In this paper, we propose a constraint elicitation process that helps combinatorial test design. Our elicitation process consists of two steps: parameter combination identification and value pair determination. We conduct experiments on some test models, and demonstrate that some extracted rules match constraints and others helps to define constraints.

SummaryCombinatorial testing (CT) is considered as a practical approach to detect software faults, which has arisen from the interaction between factors affecting the software behavior. However, most of the traditional algorithms on CT generation did not take advantage of the execution results of the earlier test cases, as well as neglect the impact of the nonequilibrium input parameter model (NE‐IPM) effect on redundant test cases, which bring a deleterious effect to the detection accuracy of the software faults. To solve these problems, we propose a novel CT approach with fuzzing strategy called CTAF. Based on the idea that fuzzing is performed during execution, CTAF exploits the execution results of earlier tests to provide guidance for subsequent test generation thereby reducing the redundant test cases without compromising the diversity of test cases. And then, we designed three experiments on real subjects of six open source software systems, and the experimental results show that the proposed CTAF approach can effectively improve the NE‐IPM effect and enhance the detection accuracy of software faults.
