Automatic test auxiliary system and corresponding software automatic test method

Abstract

The system is composed of dynamic executive control module, case scheduler module, module of syntax analysis, file interface, interface for testing executive software, and interface for testing management tool. The system converts relevant testing case to script of commercial testing software. Basic operations are encapsulated as a process so as to form structured method for calling processes from case to be tested. Using dynamic implementation of testing case and technique of delayed loading, the invention broken up the procedure for testing case into to two steps: 'initialization step of case test' and 'executive step of case test'. Thus, the invention possesses advantages: independence for editing case, reuse of cases and possesses, lowered occupancy rate of system memory and raised efficiency for executing cases.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a computer software testing technology, in particular to a testing technology for automatically testing the execution reliability of certain application software functions. Background technique [0002] At present, there are many methods for automatic testing of functional software or application software, the main methods are: [0003] One, capture / playback mechanism: directly use the writing test case 100a of commercial software script program to carry out automatic test to tested software 300a with commercial test software 200a, as figure 1 shown. Using this method, testers not only need to be familiar with test cases, but also need to be familiar with the writing of commercial software scripts, and the written test scripts also have the problem of correctness verification. Therefore, a lot of time will be spent on script maintenance instead of focusing on the testing of the application software itself; [0004] 2. Functi...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0019] 1. Every business function requires a script. Once there are hundreds of business functions, hundreds of scripts are needed;

[0020] 2. Once the test set is changed, hundreds or thousands of input data files/validation data files need to be changed;

[0021] 3. Not only various scripts are required
