How Many Pairwise Tests Required (In the Face of Combinatorial Explosions)

This webcast continuing from where, Combinatorial Explosions Explained (Software Testing Example), left off.

This video shows how well designed test plans can achieve full pairwise testing coverage with a very small number of tests. And as the total number of permutations increase exponentially as more parameters and parameter values are added properly designed test plans can provide full pairwise coverage with very few tests.

This is not possible for a person to manually do but using the right algorithms to create a test plans can provide amazing benefits.
