Consequently, searching for and sampling an optimal test suite from viable groups of test cases (TC) has turned out to be a central concern. To tackle this matter, the use of t-way testing (Where t represents the strength of the interaction) has become well known. In order to facilitate future development and summarize the realization so far, the major objective of this paper is to portray an important comparison of the introduced optimization algorithms (OA) as a base of the t-way test suite generation strategy, and to suggest a new strategy focusing on the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) Algorithm, known as Artificial Bee Colony Strategy (ABCS). The experimental results showed that ABCS can compete against the existing (both AI-based and computational-based) strategies in terms of generating the optimum test case. © 2018 IEEE. date: 2018 publisher: Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85057113273&doi=10.1109%2fICCOINS.2018.8510601&partnerID=40&md5=3ceb8e7e890edbe079960ea595065f69 id_number: 10.1109/ICCOINS.2018.8510601 full_text_status: none publication: 2018 4th International Conference on Computer and Information Sciences: Revolutionising Digital Landscape for Sustainable Smart Society, ICCOINS 2018 - Proceedings refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781538647431 citation: Alazzawi, A.K. and Md Rais, H. and Basri, S.
