A method and device for identifying automated test elements

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a method and a device for identifying an automated test element, the method comprising the steps of: obtaining an element in a sequence of operation steps, wherein the element is operable and has a service meaning; if a first object having an association relationship with the element is detected in a preset object library, an identification attribute of thefirst object being used as an identification attribute of the element to identify the element. As the embodiment of the invention automatically identifies the corresponding object in the preset object library of the element in the operation step sequence of the test case compiled by the tester, testers only need to pay attention to the elements in the sequence of test case operation steps in thetest process, which reduces the requirements of automated test tools for testers' operation skills.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of computer technology, and more specifically, to a method and device for identifying automated test elements. Background technique [0002] Software automated testing is a way to convert human-driven testing behavior into machine execution. It can complete a large part of repetitive testing work, greatly improve the efficiency of software testing, and make software testing faster. Functional automated testing in automated testing is based on black-box testing, which is a testing technique used when testers do not know the internal structure of the program at all and only know the program requirements. Common functional automation testing tools include QTP, Selenium, WinRunner, Rational, AdventNet, SilkTest, QA, Test, etc. These testing tools require testers to have certain programming skills.

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the prior art, there are many kinds of system objects under test. Some system objects under test are relatively simple, such as only text input boxes; some system objects under test are more complex, such as data display tables

In the process of automated testing, when identifying these objects, the tester should clarify the hierarchical relationship of the page objects and the identification method of the object level from the bottom of the technology, including the sub-object identification of the nested object, which makes the tester have a better understanding.
