A Method of Implementing Distributed Automatic Testing for NGOSS
Wang Ju · Journal of Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications · 2011
The Next Generation of Operations System and Software(NGOSS) architecture and existing distributed automatic test methods are studied for testing NGOSS.A Distributed Automatic Testing scheme based-on STAF(DATS) that aims at NGOSS characteristics is proposed through synthesizing existing distributed automatic test methods,DATS uses STAF/STAX(Software Test Automation Framework/STAf eXecution engine) to achieve separating test cases and test framework,automatically distributing and executing test cases,monitoring run processes,and automatically collecting test results and logs.Finally the testing agencies send the results and logs to the controller,which are shown to the developers and testers.The method solves such problems as poor cross-platform,low expansibility,difficult software defect track and complicated log management,which exist in other test tools.The validity of this method is verified by prototype system.
