Abstract :
Aiming at shortening the design time of the optimal test cases, a model of Collaborative Multi-Agent based on Parallel Genetic Algorithm (CMA-PGA) is put forward, which is to be used in combinatorial testing of the software system. Because of the competition and coordination mechanisms especially designed in CMA-PGA, the convergence rate of this model outperforms that of simple genetic algorithm in evolving the optimum or near-optimum solution.
