 Since //MCase// is built with scripting, you can dynamically build any number of //MCases// through //REST// api.  This provides an option to allow ALM process to test bug fixes remotely.
-===== Combinatorial Algorithms =====
-In the ideal world we would want exhausted testing, but we all know that's not practical and in many cases not feasible.
-//Combinatorial Algorithms// are used to generate test cases for //Combinatorial Data// models. //TestOptimal// supports following combinatorial algorithms:
-  * pairwise
-  * 3-wise
-  * 4-wise
-  * 5-wise
-  * 6-wise
-Pairwise algorithm geneartes the least number of test cases (permutations of variables) while 6-wise generates the most test cases but provides most coverage among the algorithm listed above.
-Empirically most of defects are caused by the interaction between two variables, hence pairwise algorithm would provide decent coverage with least amount of test cases for most of the system.  This is commonly used especially for larger models as it could potentially cut down the test cases by 99%.
