Abstract
A method, device, and computer program product for testing code. The method includes identifying a plurality of test points in the code and a plurality of test values to be assigned to the plurality of test points. At least one of the plurality of test points is to be assigned with two or more test values. The method also includes comparing a target test case with a set of test cases. The target test case and the set of test cases are associated with the plurality of test points. The method further includes, in response to determining that each of combinations of the test values assigned to at least two of the plurality of test points in the target test case is present in the set of test cases, excluding the target test case from the set of test cases.
