I have removed parts of this article (some of them long-standing) which were either verbatim copy pastes or very closely paraphrased from the following sources:

I have also tagged two sections as confusing and needing a re-write. My impression is that this has resulted from pasting in text from somewhere and then attempting to change a word or two, remove one, etc. The result is very garbled. Voceditenore (talk) 12:17, 3 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

pairwise vs. orthogonal arrays section removed

I removed the thinly sourced advocacy rhetoric about the supposed benefits of orthogonal arrays vs. pairwise testing. Anyone who actually does combinatorial testing knows that you almost always re-run tests and run special variations of tests as part of investigating ANY anomaly. Orthogonal arrays don't save you from having to do such an investigation. In any case, it is out of place in Wikipedia to write opinion pieces. If there is substantial, unambiguous empirical evidence of the benefits of orthogonal arrays vs. pairwise, one link to one paper does not constitute such!
