Abstract

The rapid and growing diffusion of Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) with their enhanced interactivity, responsiveness and dynamicity is sharpening the distance between Web applications and desktop applications, making the Web experience more and more appealing and user-friendly. This paper presents a technique for testing RIAs that generates test cases from application execution traces, and obtains more scalable test suites thanks to testing reduction techniques. Execution traces provide a fast and cheap way for generating test cases and can be obtained either from user sessions, or by crawling the application or by combining both approaches. The proposed technique has been evaluated by a preliminary experiment that investigated the effectiveness of different approaches for execution trace collection and of several criteria for reducing the test suites. The experimental results showed the feasibility of the technique and that its effectiveness can be improved by hybrid approaches that combine both manually and automatically obtained execution traces of the application.
使用执行跟踪数据进行富Internet应用程序测试
富Internet应用程序(ria)以其增强的交互性、响应性和动态性迅速扩散,拉大了Web应用程序和桌面应用程序之间的距离,使Web体验越来越吸引人,用户友好。本文提出了一种测试ria的技术,该技术从应用程序执行跟踪中生成测试用例,并通过测试缩减技术获得更多可伸缩的测试套件。执行跟踪为生成测试用例提供了一种快速而廉价的方法,可以从用户会话中获得,也可以通过爬行应用程序或结合这两种方法获得。所提出的技术已经通过一个初步的实验进行了评估,该实验调查了用于执行跟踪收集的不同方法的有效性,以及用于减少测试套件的几个标准。实验结果表明,该方法是可行的,并且可以通过人工和自动混合获取应用程序的执行轨迹来提高其有效性。
