[0046] In order to make the purposes, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments These are some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0047] At present, in the traditional automated testing process, the writing of automated test cases, the storage and distribution of test cases themselves, and the final test execution require too much professional quality of testers and are inefficient.
[0048] In view of the above problems in the prior art, the embodiments of the present invention provide a low-code-based automated testing method. The writing, saving and execution of test cases only require ordinary business testers who have undergone simple business training to operate, and no professional Compared with the existing technology, automated testers greatly improve the efficiency of writing test cases and significantly reduce the cost of enterprise research and development. The following will be described and introduced through a plurality of embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0049] figure 1 A schematic flowchart of a low-code-based automated testing method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, such as figure 1 As shown, the low-code-based automated testing method provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes but is not limited to the following steps:
[0050] Step 101, abstract the test behavior, and create a new test case;
[0051] The essence of low-code is the extremely abstract and templated process of application scenarios. Test actions are atomic operations specific to a business scenario. The abstract test behavior is to abstract each step of the test case into a separate test behavior, and around this test behavior, it is necessary to collect the context elements of behavior processing, and the elements are defined as parameters for the test case writers to choose or input. The test system abstracts the running environment, user and browser behavior, and participating objects (objects during testing) for their respective properties. All these abstracted objects are the objects of the test system.
[0052] figure 2 A schematic diagram of a new test case provided by the embodiment of the present invention. refer to figure 2 , after the test system is started, test case writers create new test cases according to the process.
[0053] Step 102 , create a new test behavior of the test case, and configure various parameters of each test behavior.
[0054] Among them, the test behavior is the atomic operation in the test scene, and the meta-model of the test behavior is the key element to define the behavior (atomic operation). Typically, the test behavior needs to define id, name, and alias. Depending on the specific test behavior, it may be necessary to configure 0, 1, or even multiple parameters. The parameters themselves also need to define the type and even candidate data. The entered information is part of the metamodel.
[0055] image 3 It is a schematic diagram of testing behavior editing provided by the embodiment of the present invention, refer to image 3, after creating a new test case, add the test behavior of the new test case. Among them, the test behavior is the atomic operation part of the aforementioned test case. Select a behavior and configure the various elements of the behavior. During configuration, according to the selected meta model of the specific behavior, determine how many parameters the test behavior has, what the parameter type is, and set the corresponding value of each parameter.
[0056] refer to image 3 , the test behaviors that can be added include but are not limited to: a. Use a browser; b. Open the webpage at the specified address; c. Double-click the page element; d. Set the value of the specified element; e. Wait for the specified time; f. Get the browsing Web page title; g, click on the page element; h, assign the value of the page element to a variable; i, determine the value of the variable.
[0057] Step 103, verify whether the test case is configured correctly, serialize the test case and save it;
[0058] After all test behaviors are written, verify that the test case is configured correctly, then serialize the test case and save it.
[0059] As a saved test case, it can meet various mainstream file formats and encoding methods to achieve cross-system, cross-platform, cross-language and other characteristics. For example, the file format can be a binary file, a common file based on segmentation symbols, a json file, or an xml file. The encoding method can cover mainstream GBK, UTF8, etc., including but not limited to storage in the form of a BOM header, and more capabilities can be extended through plug-ins. After the test case is saved, it can be distributed without loss, import and export of the test case. Other test servers deployed with the test system can call and execute normally and return test results.
[0060] Step 104, execute the test case and provide a result report.
[0061] The present invention abstracts and templated the tested environment, behavior or action, and participants, and provides the ability to save and parse abstracted objects, save and edit templates, and abstract the process of writing test cases.
[0062] With the low-code-based automated testing method provided by the present invention, as a test case writer, there is no need to really master the advanced framework and complex API writing ability, but only need to create a new test case in the test system, and then select the abstract steps provided by the test system, And select or edit the input and output parameters, you can complete the editing steps of each test behavior in the test case, and then complete the writing of the test case in the entire scenario, and save the test case. The test system can also identify test cases, execute test cases and output test reports according to active triggering or scheduling tasks.
[0063] Based on the content of the foregoing embodiment, in a possible implementation manner, Figure 4 This is the test case execution flow chart provided by the embodiment of the present invention. refer to Figure 4 , in step 104, execute the test case and provide a result report, which specifically includes:
[0064] Step 201, load the saved test case, and deserialize it into a test case model.
[0065] Specifically, the preservation of test cases belongs to the category of object serialization. In contrast, in order to ensure the normal execution of automated test cases by the test system, the test system also needs to have the ability to deserialize test cases, and deserialize the saved test cases. into various objects that the system can recognize. Taking the test web system as an example, the user opens the browser, enters the url to visit the website, text input on the website, button clicks, various single and double clicks, and scrolling, drag-and-drop behaviors, and so on.
[0066] Step 202, instantiate the test behavior in the test case model into an object, and execute the test case;
[0067] As an optional implementation manner, in this embodiment, according to the specific language and framework, the test behavior is instantiated into a corresponding object, and the parameters of the object are assigned values and stored in the context of the test case to be executed.
[0068] Further, the step of executing the test case includes: the test system, according to the current test behavior of the currently executing test case, finds the value corresponding to the parameter of the test behavior in the context, and executes the test behavior. If the test behavior is executed successfully, it will execute the next test behavior; if the execution fails, the failure handling process of the test case will be executed; that is, the test system will decide whether to execute the next behavior normally or have a jump requirement according to the execution of the test behavior. , if the execution fails, the failure processing flow of the test case is executed.
[0069] Step 203, collecting test results and log information.
[0070] Collect and process logs output by test case execution, and provide test result query and log information query functions on the web interface.
[0071] Step 204: Generate a test report according to the test result and log information.
[0072] The low-code-based automated testing method provided by the embodiments of the present invention abstracts the running environment, user, browser behavior, and participating objects according to their respective attributes. The writing, saving and execution of test cases can only be operated by ordinary business testers who have undergone simple business training, without the need for professional automation testers. Compared with the existing technology, the writing efficiency of test cases is greatly improved, and the R&D rate of enterprises is significantly reduced. cost.
[0073] In one embodiment, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a low-code-based automated testing system, and the low-code-based automated testing system provided by an embodiment of the present invention is used to execute the low-code-based automated testing methods in the foregoing embodiments . The system includes:
[0074] Test case new unit, which is used to abstract test behavior and create new test case;
[0075] The new unit of test behavior is used to create the test behavior of the test case and configure the parameters of each test behavior;
[0076] The test case saving unit is used to verify whether the test case is configured correctly, serialize the test case and save it;
[0077] The test case execution unit is used to execute the test case and provide the result report.
[0078] The low-code-based automated testing system provided by the present invention provides serialization and deserialization capabilities for test cases, including identification, verification and judgment. Among them, the combination of a series of sequential behaviors written to meet specific test scenarios is called a test case. The traditional test case is a concrete-based combination of a series of steps generated in a specific programming language and a specific programming framework in sequence. In this test system, test case writers select and enter a new test step based on the abstract candidate behavior and the parameters defined by the behavior meta-model on the web platform of the system (this step is the concrete behavior), press Sequentially enter behavior, and finally complete an entire test case.
[0079] Save the test cases of this system, only save the abstract behavior, not the specific language and framework, such as:
[0080] ##test webconsole console 2
[0081] #browser 11
[0082] use chrome
[0083] #browse
[0084] Browse to http://localhost:8090/
[0085] wait for 1000
[0086] #action
[0087] set name=username admin
[0088] set name=password lsh.0904
[0089] screenshot
[0090] wait for 1000
[0091] Click id=login
[0092] wait for 1000
[0093] click id=test

[0104] Equal to lsh_v1 lshv2
[0105] #ending
[0106] Click xpath=//*[@id="nav"]/nav/form/button
[0107] Therefore, the above text method can be used for serialization, and the behavior and corresponding parameters can be separated by spaces or special characters. For the scalability and compatibility of the system, it provides the ability to serialize test cases using json or xml.
[0108] Based on the above cognition, most high-level languages have no barriers to read and write or serialize and deserialize.
[0109] Test cases can be effectively saved and distributed. Considering the system version upgrade, the version information of test cases can be set in the header of the saved file, which is convenient for compatibility verification and processing after deserialization.
