Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current testing systems for virtual spaces lack integrated functionality testing on both client and server sides, leading to inconsistencies in user interactions and virtual space features.
Innovation Solution
A test system that generates and executes test commands simulating user actions to test client-side and server-side components, including virtual space view presentation, graphics rendering, and server modules, ensuring consistency across both platforms.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If separate testing systems are used for client-side and server-side components, then each component can be tested independently, but integration consistency and overall system reliability deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges client-side and server-side testing into a single integrated testing system. The test execution module coordinates both client and server testing simultaneously, and the verification module compares results from both sides to ensure consistency. This integration ensures that client-side functionalities and server-side components work together correctly, resolving the contradiction between independent testing ease and integration reliability.
2Reliability
If comprehensive integrated testing is implemented, then system reliability and consistency improve, but testing complexity and time consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The testing system is segmented into distinct functional modules: test case module, test command module, test execution module, test result module, and verification module. Each module handles specific aspects of testing, making the complex integrated testing process manageable and organized. This segmentation reduces the perceived complexity while maintaining comprehensive coverage of both client and server components.
Solution Approach 2:
The verification module provides feedback by comparing actual test results from client and server sides with expected outcomes. This feedback mechanism ensures consistency and reliability while automatically identifying discrepancies, reducing the need for manual verification and simplifying the overall testing process despite its comprehensive nature.
3Reliability
If comprehensive integrated testing is implemented, then system reliability improves, but testing time and productivity deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The test execution module executes test commands continuously and coordinates client and server testing in an ongoing manner rather than sequentially. This continuous execution allows for efficient use of testing resources and reduces overall testing time while maintaining comprehensive coverage of system functionalities, thus improving productivity without sacrificing reliability.
Data Source
AI summary
A system and method for performing integrated testing of a virtual space are disclosed. For performing the integrated testing, test inputs simulating virtual space actions by users may be obtained for one or more test cases. Responsive to such test inputs being obtained, one or more test commands may be generated for testing virtual space functionalities implemented on client computing platforms and for testing server components being executed on one or more virtual space servers to facilitate user participation of the virtual space. The generated test commands may be executed and test results may be obtained. The obtained test results may be compared with expected results corresponding to the test cases for verification.
