Pairwise testing tools based on hill climbing algorithm (PTCA)

Failure in software can cause serious damage and because of this it is essential to test the software thoroughly. Software testing is the activity to find the defects in the components or systems. The main problem in software testing is to test the system exhaustively as it is impossible to do so. T...
