20080282231 | AUTOMATED SOFTWARE TESTING FRAMEWORK USING INDEPENDENT TEST SCRIPTS - A software testing framework for testing independent scenarios of software applications can comprise independent test scripts, business rules repositories, and test data sources. Independent test scripts can be used to test screens of the software application. Business rules repositories can be stored separately from independent test scripts and from test data sources. A framework for testing end-to-end scenarios of software applications can comprise modules, business rules repositories, and test data sources. An end-to-end scenario can be tested by executing two or more independent test scripts. Independent scenarios can be tested using a framework by populating fields, determining expected and actual results, and comparing the expected and actual results. End-to-end scenarios can be tested by executing independent test scripts associated with independent scenarios of the end-to-end scenario. Software testing can be performed without using test cases. | 11-13-2008 |
