Hyper-heuristic based strategy for pairwise test case generation

Pairwise testing significantly reduces testing efforts of contemporary software systems by efficiently sampling their exorbitant number of parameter configurations. Meta-heuristic based pairwise test generation strategies appeared effective in the recent literature for pairwise testing. However, met...
