| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this research was to extend Combinatorial Interaction Testing (CIT) to add the capability of fault detection to it. We focused on locating arrays as an enabling technique for this. However, the original definition of locating arrays does not assume the existence of constraints among test parameters, which prohibited locating arrays from being used in real-world CIT. In this research we proposed an extension of locating arrays aiming at addressing this problem. We showed some mathematical properties of this new notion. In addition, we developed a few algorithms that automatically generate locating arrays. Using one of the algorithms, we were successful in finding the minimum (optimal) locating arrays for several cases. These optimal results were used as baseline in the evaluation of the other generation algorithms.
