P2r – A Pairwise Testing Strategy Supporting Execution Resumption

Achieving an accepted level of software product quality assurance requires exhaustive and time consuming testing process, especially when testing software with large number of parameters and large number of possible input values for its parameters. Pairwise software testing have been commonly...
