RE: what is pair-wise testing ?
 
Due To time Constraints, everything cannot be tested. Take an eg.

You have to test a S/W on English/French/Japanese and German Languages with OS as VISTA/MAC PPC/IMAC/WINXP
Testing all will take 16 Language-OS Combination
But as French/English/German are Roman Lang and Japanese is double byte lang so u can omit some of the combinations here. Similarly IMAC and MAC PPc can be grouped in one pair.
VISTA and WIN XP in other pair
Now depending upon time , you can select the number of combinations u want to test
eg
IMAC- GERman
MAC PPC-- French
IMAC-    Japanese
VISTA- Japanese
WINXP - German
VISTA- English
