Try this way...

<?php 
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('display_startup_errors', 1);
ini_set('memory_limit', '5G');
error_reporting(E_ALL);
use Magento\Framework\App\Bootstrap;
/**
 * If the external file is in the root folder
 */
require __DIR__ . '/app/bootstrap.php';
$params = $_SERVER;
$bootstrap = Bootstrap::create(BP, $params);
$obj = $bootstrap->getObjectManager();
$state = $obj->get('Magento\Framework\App\State');
$state->setAreaCode('frontend');
$objectManager = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance(); // instance of object manager
 $category_id= array(67,68);
 //$imglist = implode(',', $insert_csv['image']);
 //echo $imagelist = array($imglist);
 $configurable_product = $objectManager->create('\Magento\Catalog\Model\Product');
 $configurable_product->setSku("test-sku"); // set sku
 $configurable_product->setName("test-name"); // set name
 $configurable_product->setAttributeSetId(4);
 $configurable_product->setStatus(1);
 $configurable_product->setTypeId('configurable');
 $configurable_product->setVisibility(4);
 $configurable_product->setPrice(0);
 $configurable_product->setWebsiteIds(array(1)); // set website
 $configurable_product->setCategoryIds($category_id); // set category
 $configurable_product->setStockData(array(
 'use_config_manage_stock' => 0, //'Use config settings' checkbox
 'manage_stock' => 1, //manage stock
 'is_in_stock' => 1, //Stock Availability
 )
 );
 // super attribute 
 $size_attr_id = $configurable_product->getResource()->getAttribute('size')->getId();
 $color_attr_id = $configurable_product->getResource()->getAttribute('color')->getId();
 $configurable_product->getTypeInstance()->setUsedProductAttributeIds(array($color_attr_id, $size_attr_id), $configurable_product); //attribute ID of attribute 'size_general' in my store
 $configurableAttributesData = $configurable_product->getTypeInstance()->getConfigurableAttributesAsArray($configurable_product);
 $configurable_product->setCanSaveConfigurableAttributes(true);
 $configurable_product->setConfigurableAttributesData($configurableAttributesData);
 $configurableProductsData = array();
 $configurable_product->setConfigurableProductsData($configurableProductsData);
 try {
 $configurable_product->save();
 } catch (Exception $ex) {
 echo '<pre>';
 print_r($ex->getMessage());
 exit;
 }
 $productId = $configurable_product->getId();
 // assign simple product ids
 $associatedProductIds = array(4609,4610,4611,4612);
 try{
 $configurable_product = $objectManager->create('Magento\Catalog\Model\Product')->load($productId); // Load Configurable Product
 $configurable_product->setAssociatedProductIds($associatedProductIds); // Setting Associated Products
 $configurable_product->setCanSaveConfigurableAttributes(true);
 $configurable_product->save();
 } catch (Exception $e) {
 echo "<pre>";
 print_r($e->getMessage());
 exit;
 }

• Niket: Which type of associated product should be here?
• Niket: I run this script. But, it doesn't assign simple product in configurable product.
• Rakesh Donga: @Niket i think you have missmetch in attribute color,size
• Niket: If i want to create that simple product with that attribute value. Then, what should i need to do?
• Rakesh Donga: you need to here only add your attribute code i have recently use this code and create configure products
