1. A method of creating a system configuration data set, the method comprising:

  • creating a hierarchical tree structure with a plurality of nodes where each node represents a system property and includes at least one of an attribute and a value;

    receiving a set of expressions representing a set of system test goals, wherein the set of expressions includes at least one preference expression that defines at least one of testing knowledge, testing experience, and testing beliefs;

    creating a set of system test data utilizing the hierarchical tree structure combined with the expressions;

    receiving at least one bias value and at least preference value;

    associating the at least one bias value with the at least one preference expression; and

    associating the at least one priority value to the at least one preference value.
