Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1. Most testers do not have a development foundation. When testing function-based API interfaces, they do not know how to test, or test cases cannot cover function points
Time-consuming and labor-intensive testing, the test cycle is too long
[0005] 2. The function-based front-end test (or UI automation test) cannot meet the security requirements of the system. From a technical point of view, it is possible to skip the front-end verification and go to the background to simulate the request data by capturing packets and other means.
[0006] 3. Developers have a heavy development workload and write interface programs, so they cannot perform functional verification in detail

Abstract

The invention discloses an API automated testing method and system based on data driving. The method comprises the steps that an API is executed to test a main entrance; parameter configuration and basic information filling-in are carried out on the API; according to test case constraint rules of the API, test case data is generated; the test case data is executed; and according to a template file, a test report is generated. The provided API automated testing method has the advantages that the reusability is very strong, the time of personnel writing test cases manually can be greatly shortened, the time cost is saved, the test cycle is shortened, the use is simple, the configuration is flexible and convenient, the manual operation is reduced, the efficiency is improved, the workload of developers is reduced, the deflect problem is found in the shortest time, so that a developed interface module is more stable and robust when called.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of software testing, in particular to a data-driven API automated testing method and system. Background technique [0002] In the process of software development, after the API interface of the program is developed, it is usually manually debugged or tested by the developer himself with tools. The content of the test is only to verify whether the forward function and reverse return value of the interface are correct, and far It is far from guaranteed whether there are problems with the interface developed by oneself. Nowadays, in the software system development of large-scale projects, the logic complexity of the background is much higher. How to ensure the correct data exchange and transmission between system modules and the logical dependencies between systems have become a very important task. link. [0003] In most of the scenarios in the traditional testing field that focus on functional testing, there ...
