A Fault Diagnosis Method for Web Application's Compatibility Based on Combinatorial Testing

The fault diagnosis for Web Application's compatibility is concerned with multiple kinds of software and hardware facilities, enormous numbers of equipments, and the combination of all the situations. How to orient the location of the fault effeciently is an important task. Combined with the characters of Web applications' compatibility testing and the model and characters of combinatorial testing, we analyze the combinatorial testing results based on our previous work. Then we retest with some complementary test cases based on the elementary analytic results, and make further analysis and validation with the retesting results. Thus we obtain the factors that cause the errors in a very small range, and we also could provide efficient and valuable guidance for the debugging and testing work.
