Abstract
In this paper, we extend an existing algebraic modelling technique for covering arrays by considering additional properties which are required when these structures are applied in practice in a branch of software testing called combinatorial testing. Corresponding to these properties, we give semantically equivalent systems of multivariate polynomial equations.
期刊介绍:
Electronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics is a venue for the rapid electronic publication of the proceedings of conferences, of lecture notes, monographs and other similar material for which quick publication is appropriate. Organizers of conferences whose proceedings appear in Electronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics, and authors of other material appearing as a volume in the series are allowed to make hard copies of the relevant volume for limited distribution. For example, conference proceedings may be distributed to participants at the meeting, and lecture notes can be distributed to those taking a course based on the material in the volume.
