Event-driven Modeling Test Case Generation with Holistic View for Multilevel Services Composition
Shymaa Sobhy, Mahmoud Hussein, Ashraf B. El sisi · 2016
A service-oriented architecture for web applications is often implemented using web services. These services can be combined in a new workflow called as web service composition. These services have become more and more complex, where they have to cope with strict requirements of business processes and their dynamic evolution, and interactions among different companies. In this context, the analysis and testing of such services demands a large amount of effort. To reduce the effort required for web-services testing, in this paper, we propose an event-driven approach to automatically modeling and generating test cases that enable a comfortable fault management leading to a holistic view for multilevel web services composition. To evaluate our approach, we applied it to four cases study using our developed tool. Compared to exiting approaches, our approach reduces testing cost and execution time, and increases testing reliability.
