This paper explores the usage of search-based techniques for the Testing Resource Allocation Problem (TRAP). We focus on the analysis of the literature, surveying the research proposals where search-based techniques are exploited for different formulations of the TRAP. Three dimensions are considered: the model formulation, solution, and validation. The analysis allows to derive several observations, and finally outline some new research directions towards better (namely, closer to real-world settings) modelling and solutions, highlighting the most promising areas of investigation.
