Abstract | The metaheuristic algorithm is a very important area of research that continuously improves in solving optimization problems. Nature-inspired is one of the metaheuristic algorithm classifications that has grown in popularity among researchers over the last few decades. Nature-inspired metaheuristic algorithms contribute significantly to tackling many standing complex problems (such as the combinatorial t-way testing problem) and achieving optimal results. One challenge in this area is the combinatorial explosion problem, which is always intended to find the most optimal final test suite that will cover all combinations of a given interaction strength. As such, test case generation has been selected as the most active research area in combinatorial t-way testing as Non-deterministic Polynomial-Time Hardness (NP-hard). However, not all metaheuristics are effectively adopted in combinatorial t-way testing, some proved to be effective and thus have been popular tools selected for optimization, whilst others were not. This research paper outlines a hundred and ten (110) outstanding nature-inspired metaheuristic algorithms for the last decades (2001 and 2021), such as the Coronavirus Optimization Algorithm, Ebola Optimization Algorithm, Harmony Search, Tiki-Taka Algorithm, and so on. The purpose of this review is to revisit and carry out an up-to-date review of these distinguished algorithms with their respective current states of use. This is to inspire future research in the field of combinatorial t-way testing for better optimization. Thus, we found that all metaheuristics have a simple structure that can be adopted in different areas to become more efficient in optimization. Finally, we suggested some future paths of investigation for researchers who are interested in the combinatorial t-way testing field to employ more of these algorithms by tuning their parameters settings to achieve an optimal solution. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
