-Thanks for stopping by. My name is Jacek Czerwonka and I work for Microsoft. For a while now, in addition may day job, I have been involved in designing and implementing pairwise-related tools and evangelizing pairwise testing at Microsoft. This web site is a collection of links related to pairwise that I have accumulated in that period of time. I hope you find this information useful.
-If you come across something that should be included here, have a comment, or simply want to chat about pairwise testing, email me.

-The basic measure of efficiency of a pairwise test generation tool is the number of tests a tool generates given some size of input. For example, when the input has four parameters with 3 values each, denoted 3⁴  in the table below, tools create between 9 and 11 test cases. All of the test suites meet the pairwise testing criterion of covering each pair of values in at least one test case however some tools can pack all these combinations them into fewer tests. This may not matter for small problems, test suites for large test domains can exhibit bigger differences.
-Test generation efficiency is one aspect of a tool that a user will want to consider when choosing a tool to use, but numbers are easier to compare than less tangile aspects like "usability", so a standard set of benchmarks emerged over the years. The table below summarizes efficiencies for several tools that happened to publish their numbers.

-Pairwise testing is an effective test case generation technique that is based on the observation that most faults are caused by interactions of at most two factors. Pairwise-generated test suites cover all combinations of two therefore are much smaller than exhaustive ones yet still very effective in finding defects.
-### Resources
-You can read more about this technique in many [papers](https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C48&q=pairwise+testing&btnG=) and [books](https://www.amazon.com/gp/search?ie=UTF8&tag=pairwise-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=d32d92503bf7cc820739af70b6913097&camp=1789&creative=9325&index=books&keywords=software%20combinatorial%20testing) published over the years.
-### Tools
-There are many [tools](./tools.md) that adopted and integrated pairwise testing as one of the test generation methods.
