==Definition==

SBSE converts a software engineering problem into a computational search problem that can be tackled with a [[metaheuristic]]. This involves defining a search space, or the set of possible solutions. This space is typically too large to be explored exhaustively, suggesting a [[metaheuristic]] approach. A metric <ref>
