Modeling Web Applications and Generating Tests: A Combination and Interactions-guided Approach
Bo Song, Huaikou Miao · 2009
As more and more services and information are made available over the Internet and Intranet, Web sites have become extraordinarily complex, while their correctness and reliability are often crucial to the success of businesses and organizations. Additionally, the behavior of the Web browsers may have impact on the correctness of the Web applications: a Web application providing all correct functionality by itself may however malfunction when it is put into its supporting environment. Consequently, the Web browserpsilas interactions should be taken into account at the stage of modeling Web applications. Software testing is a primary way of improving software reliability and assuring software quality. This paper proposed an approach to modeling Web applications by the means of combination of Web functional modules and the browserpsilas interactions. A Web application is referred to as a system which consisted of many different functional modules. At last, test generation is given out which satisfies the corresponding coverage criteria.
