Framework for automated functional testing of P2P-based M2M applications

Abstract

This publication presents a novel concept for automated testing of decentralised services and applications in Peer-to-Peer (P2P) connected Machine-to-Machine (M2M) networks. Different challenges and requirements for testing are defined and a novel testing framework with a special testing architecture for functional testing is introduced. Furthermore, this publication describes a novel concept for deriving and generating test cases in M2M applications composed by several services.
