A Generalized Functional Testing Approach for Application Services Development
Thiago Nascimento Rodrigues · Revista de Informática Aplicada · 2017
The design of flexible test architectures for the evaluation of software has challenged testers and developers teams throughout distinct development software processes. The challenges involve both a simple software module and a complete software layer. In this scenario, this work proposes a testing approach based on functional tests. Each software module (application service) is seen as a black-box, and an alternative way to design tests case is presented. The concept of generalized functional tests is analyzed under the perspective of tests case more informative and more able to ensure the quality of an application service. The particular focus on the reuse of test data instances highlights the potential of the suggested model.
