Web Service Reliability Test Method Based on Log Analysis
Xuetao Tian, Honghui Li, Feng Liu · 2017
A web service reliability test method for C/S architecture software based on log analysis is presented in this paper. In this method, the software usage model is constructed automatically to describe the real situation on the users' access to the web service by Markov chain. The test cases are generated according to Random Walk and applied to software reliability test. In the experiment process, MTBF (focusing on server crash) was chosen to be the software reliability evaluation index. Through the testing and analysis of a real web software, MTBF obtained by testing result is similar to that from the realistic log, and the web service reliability test method is validated.
