Building High Strength Mixed Covering Arrays with Constraints

pdf-format:
LIPIcs-CP-2021-12.pdf (0.8 MB)

Abstract

Covering arrays have become a key piece in Combinatorial Testing. In particular, we focus on the efficient construction of Covering Arrays with Constraints of high strength. SAT solving technology has been proven to be well suited when solving Covering Arrays with Constraints. However, the size of the SAT reformulations rapidly grows up with higher strengths. To this end, we present a new incomplete algorithm that mitigates substantially memory blow-ups. The experimental results confirm the goodness of the approach, opening avenues for new practical applications.
