Test case generation method based on network application comprehensive importance

Abstract

The invention discloses a test case generation method based on network application comprehensive importance, and belongs to the field of network application testing. Under the condition that the test cost is limited, an effective method for evaluating the importance degree of page nodes of network applications and preferentially testing the page nodes is provided, and the network applications are comprehensively analyzed from the static, dynamic, local and global angles; and the influence factors of the network application are explored, and the final node importance is calculated by combining a multi-attribute decision-making method. Meanwhile, in order to better test the effectiveness of a case set, the diversity concept is introduced by increasing the attention of new coverage migration in the calculation process, and a test case generation method combining node importance and generation diversity is provided. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that the important nodes are evaluated more accurately, the obtained test case set can test the important nodes preferentially on the premise that the quality of the test case set is guaranteed, and the method has high application value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of network application testing, and is a method for effectively testing network applications under the condition of limited testing cost. Background technique [0002] Software testing is an important means of checking the correctness of web applications. It performs corresponding operations on the network application under test according to certain rules, and exposes errors in the software by observing whether the software behavior is consistent with the expected results. However, the cost of software testing is high, and the detailed testing depends on a lot of manpower and material resources. Therefore, how to effectively test network applications under the condition of limited testing costs has gradually become a research hotspot. [0003] It is an effective method to evaluate the importance of each page node of the web application and to test the important nodes first. There are also many research results on i...

Problems solved by technology

At present, some research considers the text content of page nodes and the in-out degree of topological structure from the static and local perspectives to find important nodes in network applications, but this method ignores the dynamic execution process of the entire network application and the overall topology. characteristics, resulting in inaccurate evaluation of node importance

At the same time, only based on the importance of nodes to guide the generation of test case sets, its effectiveness also has great limitations
