Intelligent generation of automated user interface testing methods

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• identifying a plurality of test scripts associated with a web application, each of the test scripts associated with a set of page objects from a plurality of page objects of the web application, wherein a set of page objects to be tested by a test script is associated with a set of page object characteristics;
• generating a plurality of groupings of test scripts from the plurality of test scripts based on test scripts that are associated with sets of page objects with similar sets of page object characteristics;
• receiving a request for a first test script from a client computing system coupled with the server computing system, the first test script to test a first set of page objects from the plurality of page objects of the web application, the request including a first set of page object characteristics associated with the first test script;
• identifying the first test script from the plurality of groupings of test scripts based on the first set of page objects and the first set of page object characteristics;
• and
• transmitting the first test script to the client computing system to enable testing the web application using the first set of page objects with the first set of page object characteristics.

A computer program product for identifying test scripts used recommend a test script to test web application comprising computer-readable program code to be executed by one or more processors when retrieved from a non-transitory computer-readable medium, the program code including instructions to:

• identify a plurality of test scripts associated with a web application, each of the test scripts associated with a set of page objects from a plurality of page objects of the web application, wherein a set of page objects to be tested by a test script is associated with a set of page object characteristics;
• generate a plurality of groupings of test scripts from the plurality of test scripts based on test scripts that are associated with sets of page objects with similar sets of page object characteristics;
• receive a request for a first test script from a client computing system coupled with the server computing system, the first test script to test a first set of page objects from the plurality of page objects of the web application, the request including a first set of page object characteristics associated with the first test script;
• identify the first test script from the plurality of groupings of test scripts based on the first set of page objects and the first set of page object characteristics;
• and
• transmit the first test script to the client computing system to enable testing the web application using the first set of page objects with the first set of page object characteristics.
