ResumenSoftware testing is an essential activity to ensure the quality of software systems. Combinatorial testing is a method that facilitates the software testing process; it is based on an empirical evidence where almost all faults in a software component are due to the interaction of very few parameters. The test generation problem for combinatorial testing can be represented as the construction of a matrix that has certain properties; typically this matrix is a covering array. Covering arrays have a small number of tests, in comparison with an exhaustive approach, and provide a level of interaction coverage among the parameters involved. This paper presents a repository that contains binary covering arrays involving many levels of interaction. Also, it discusses the importance of covering array repositories in the construction of better covering arrays. In most of the cases, the size of the covering arrays included in the repository reported here are the best upper bounds known, moreover, the files containing the matrices of these covering arrays are available to be downloaded. The final purpose of our Binary Covering Arrays Repository (BCAR) is to provide software testing practitioners the best-known binary test-suites.es_ES
