Combinatorial Testing

Covering Array Library

Although most combinatorial testing problems have varying numbers of values per variable, in some cases all variables have the same number of values and a pre-computed array can be found.

NIST library of pre-computed covering arrays Arrays are available for t=2 to t=5, with 2 to 6 values per variable, and for t=6 with 2 to 5 values per variable.
Large collection of covering arrays available for download (Jose Torres-Jimenez)
Data on the smallest uniform covering array sizes for up to 20,000 variables for t=2, and up to 10,000 for t=3 through t=6. (Note that this database records the best known array sizes but does not include the arrays themselves.)
