WeSPaS — Web specification pattern system

Abstract

We propose a library of web specification patterns to assist web developers and testers in formally specifying web related properties. The current version of the library contains 119 functional and non-functional patterns obtained from scrutinizing various resources in the field of quality assurance of Web Applications, which characterize successful web application using a set of standardized attributes. We evaluated 10% of our patterns on six Web applications. The results showed that the majority of tested properties are violated by the web applications.
