[0039] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the scheme of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] For easier understanding, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 ,The present invention provides an embodiment of a PC client interface test system, including a screenshot module, a packet capture module, a data storage module and a test platform;

[0041] A screenshot module is used to take screenshots of the function operations occurring on the PC client interface, mark the timestamp and the service process ID of the PC client on the screenshot of the PC client interface image, and transmit the screenshot to the data storage module;

[0042] The packet capture module is used to obtain the service process ID of the PC client through the PC task manager after the PC client is started, capture network data according to the service process ID, mark the captured network data with a timestamp and associate it with the service process ID before transmitting it to the data storage module. The network data includes the interface name;

[0043] The data storage module is used to receive and save interface images, service process IDs and network data. The interface images and network data are associated through the service process ID and timestamp. The data storage module is also used to store interface test cases and interface test case execution results. The interface test cases include interface names. The interface test case execution results are associated with the interface test cases. The interface test case execution results include execution time.

[0044] The testing platform is used to obtain the corresponding interface test cases from the data storage module based on the interface image matching method or the interface name matching method, execute the interface test cases selected by the user and generate the interface test case execution results, and store the interface test case execution results in the data storage module.

[0045] It should be noted that when the user performs a function operation on the PC client interface, the screenshot module is triggered, and a screenshot of the PC client interface is taken to obtain an interface image, and then a timestamp and the service process ID (Process Identifier, PID) of the PC client are added to the interface image to make it unique. The interface image is then transmitted to the data storage module.

[0046] After the PC client is started, the packet capture module obtains the service process ID of the PC client through the task manager, and captures the network data under the service process ID of the PC client when performing functional operations in the PC client interface. Specifically, the service process ID of the PC client can be configured in the packet capture module, so that the packet capture module only captures the network data of the service process ID, which plays a pre-filtering role. The network data includes the request content and response content of the interface, such as the interface path (URL path), the interface name, the interface request method (such as Get or POST), the interface parameters (such as key-value pair parameters in JSON string format or Form format), the interface request header parameters (such as cookies), the interface response status code and the response result (such as text in JSON string format), etc. The captured network data is timestamped and associated with the service process ID, and transmitted to the data storage module. Different PC clients can be distinguished by the service process ID, which can meet the needs of multiple testers to test at the same time and avoid the problem of data confusion when multiple people use it.

[0047] The data stored in the data storage module include the interface images sent by the screenshot module, the network data transmitted by the packet capture module, the interface test cases preconfigured by the tester, and the interface test case execution results. In the data storage module, the network data is associated with the interface images through the service process ID and timestamp. The interface test cases and the interface test case execution results contain the interface name. The network data of the PC client can be associated with the interface images and interface test cases of the PC client, and the interface test cases can be associated with the interface test case execution results. The interface images of the PC client can also be associated with the network data of the PC client, and then associated with the interface test cases from the network data of the PC client. The interface test case execution results stored in the data storage module include execution time, interface list, interface response success or failure status, etc. In the daily testing process of the PC client, sufficient interface images and interface data sets are collected to form a reliable data storage warehouse, namely the data storage module, and a complete mapping relationship between the PC client interface images and interfaces is established. When the functional module of the PC client changes, the differences in calling interfaces between different interface images can be compared, which helps to analyze the impact of interface changes on functions during the testing process.

[0048] The test platform supports two methods, interface image matching and interface name matching, to match the corresponding interface test cases from the data storage module. For the interface image matching method, the user can take a screenshot of the functional operation occurring on the PC client interface to obtain a screenshot image. The test platform will perform similarity matching between the screenshot image and all the interface images in the data storage module, and sort the matched interface images by similarity. They can be sorted from high to low or from low to high. Generally, a high to low sorting method is selected to prioritize the interface images with the highest similarity. The user can click on any interface image from the matching results to view the interface list associated with the interface image. Click on any interface name in the interface list to view and select an interface test case. After the user selects the interface test case and confirms execution, the test platform executes the interface test case selected by the user and generates the interface test case execution result, and stores the interface test case execution result in the data storage module. For the interface name matching method, the user can enter the interface name to be tested on the test platform, and the test platform will fuzzily match the interface to be tested from the data storage module according to the interface name to obtain an interface list. Each interface in the interface list is associated with a corresponding interface image and interface test case. The user can click on any interface name in the interface list to view and select the corresponding interface image and interface test case. After the user selects the interface test case and confirms the execution, the test platform executes the interface test case selected by the user and generates the interface test case execution result, and stores the interface test case execution result in the data storage module. Therefore, when the tester performs page function testing on the PC client, the test platform automatically generates interface test cases. In the absence of interface documents, the tester can also quickly create interface test cases based on page function testing. The tester can choose to directly use the interface test case for testing, or when the interface test case needs to be modified, it can be modified directly on the basis of the interface test case without rebuilding the interface test case, which helps the tester at least build a basic interface test case framework, which helps the tester to optimize the test case on this basis, which is more convenient and quick.

[0049] The PC client interface test system provided by the present invention is configured with a screenshot module, a packet capture module, a data storage module and a test platform, wherein the screenshot module captures the interface image of the PC client, and performs timestamp marking and PC client service process ID processing on the interface image, the packet capture module captures the corresponding network data according to the service process ID of the PC client, and performs timestamp marking and PC client service process ID processing on the network data, the data storage module stores the interface image, network data, interface test case and interface test case result, and the test platform matches the interface test case from the data storage module according to the interface image matching method or the interface name matching method, and then executes the interface test case selected by the user and generates the interface test case execution result and stores it in the data storage module. Not only the workload and time of manual operation are reduced, but also the relationship between the interface and the interface of the PC client is established, and the two-way tracing of the interface and the interface of the PC client is realized, and the technical problems that the existing PC client interface and test method testing is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the interface cannot be matched with the interface, and it is difficult to match with the actual business function are solved.

[0050] In one embodiment, the test platform is also used to display all interface images in the data storage module to the user. The user can check one or more interface images in the test platform, and the test platform obtains the interface image selected by the user and compares and displays the corresponding interface list under the interface image. The user can also manually add, modify and delete interface test cases through the test platform, and the test platform receives and executes the user's instructions to add, modify or delete interface test cases.

[0051] In order to more specifically demonstrate the effect of the PC client interface test system provided in the present invention, the present invention provides the following specific application examples for illustration:

[0052] Application Example 1: In the PC client test project, the R&D personnel proposed the notification announcement requirements and required the testing of page functions and interface functions. The tester performs page function testing according to the notification announcement requirements, starts the packet capture module in the present invention, and the packet capture module obtains the service process ID of the PC client from the task manager and sets it in the packet capture module. Start the screenshot module, open the notification announcement new interface, click the screenshot and enter the service process ID, save the current interface picture to the data storage module, and perform page forward and reverse function tests on the notification announcement new interface, for example: fill in the required items normally, do not fill in the required items, do not fill in the optional items, fill in all the optional items, illegal digital format, overlong string, type is not in range, etc., and the interface request and response triggered by the tester each time he clicks to save the notification announcement is collected through the packet capture module. Save the interface content to the data storage module, and associate the screenshot with the interface content through the service process ID and timestamp. The tester repeats the above steps and continues to test the modification, deletion, and release of notification announcements on the page. After the tester has completed the notification function test, he can view the corresponding list of cross-section images and interfaces in the test platform, and perform interface testing after simply modifying the interface use case according to the situation. Finally, the test result of the requirement is quickly given.

[0053] Application Example 2: In the PC client test project, the PC client version is upgraded, and the tester needs to return to whether the interface functions of each functional module are normal. In the daily test process, the tester uses the PC client interface test system provided in the present invention to collect interface pictures and interface data, and establishes a complete data storage warehouse for picture and interface mapping. According to the interface of each functional module, the tester searches for the interface pictures of the functional modules one by one on the test platform, and matches the picture data in the data storage module according to the picture recognition comparison, finds the pictures with high similarity, and the corresponding interface list, and performs interface testing after simply modifying the interface use case according to the situation. Finally, the test results are given quickly.

[0054] Application Example 3: In the PC client test project, the R&D personnel modified multiple interface logics, but it is not clear on which pages these interfaces are used, and the testers need to sort out which pages use these interfaces. In the daily test process, the testers use the PC client interface test system provided in the present invention to collect interface pictures and interface data, and establish a complete data storage warehouse for picture and interface mapping. When the interface list is obtained from the R&D personnel, the interface path, interface name and other information can be known. On the test platform of the PC client interface test system provided in the present invention, the interface name is searched one by one, and the interface picture corresponding to the interface is obtained from the complete interface data storage warehouse. The interface list and page list are counted and fed back to the R&D personnel, and the test task is completed quickly.
