1、Novel Software Automated Testing System Based on J2EEAbstractSoftware automated testing is one of the critical research subjects in the field ofcomputer application. In this paper a novel design of architecture called automatedtesting system ATS is proposed. Based on techniques relating to J2EE incl

Moreover as the core of ATS is built in Java it can work in differentenvironments without being re-complied. The efficiency of t

Therefore it is now apopular research problem in the computer application research area. The increasedcomplexity of systems as well as short product release

Therefore how to improve the software qualities and how toadvance the testing efficiency are difficult.As a result software testing is the biggest challenging work during the softwarelifecycle especially the software automated testing.

Every testingbusiness is supported theoretically by ATS due to the excellent inherent capability self-defined APIs which can be developed by advanced testing developers quicklywith Tcl script language aiming at different special targets and the APIs is transparentto common testers who work

Related WorkThe most popular methods about automation test include record-playback functionaldecomposition data-driven and keywords-driven. Record-playback is applie

In thismethod the entire process is data-driven as well and the keywords control theprocessing. However ATS has strong programming function supported by variousfundamental

Blackburn forinstance proposed a model-based test automation method called test automationframework TAF which

Themodel focuses on how test engineers can develop more reusable models by clarifyingtextual requirements as models in terms of component or system interfaces. Howeverdue to un-canonical requirement documents and un-strict business control it is verydifficult to extend it to many big software companies not to mention thosemiddle-small companies.
