A Survey on Test Case Reduction Techniques

Test case reduction is traditional in nature. It is very old field on which engineers work from the beginning of the third generation. Reduction is not an easy task, several techniques in this field is developed. There are several challenges faced by the engineers, for instance, cost and time. The reduction is the nightmare of the developer, as, the level of testing is increases, techniques of reduction also becomes more complex. An old technique teaches us the basic of the reduction of test cases without any complexity and through simple algorithms. So, this paper gives the overview of the existing techniques and gives the literature review of test case reduction techniques in software testing field.
