With the increase of the Web applications, efficient and reliable test has become a practical necessary to improve the reliability of Web applications. Due to the dynamic and uncertain characteristics of Web applications, traditional testing methods are hard to make good performance. Agent could be adapted in the distributed environment which are intelligent and initiative. An adaptive Web application testing framework based on Multi-Agent collaboration theory (ATFBMA) is proposed in this paper. ATFBMA satisfies the dynamics and uncertainties of the adaptive Web application testing. Meanwhile, layered and role-divided Multi-Agent architecture is constructed. Agents are divided into different roles depending on the responsibilities and capabilities. The architecture supports the test requirements of function and structure, and improves test efficiency through the division and distribution of test tasks. A user management system is used to verify the practicality and intelligence of ATFBMAC.
