Method and system for verifying resulting behavior of graph query language

A method for verifying a resulting behavior of a graph query language, comprising:

• defining a preset lexical rule, which comprises defining keywords in a graph database as a computer-recognizable text combination;
• adding a lexical parser and a preset lexical rule to a Behavior Driven Development (BDD) test framework, to construct an improved BDD test framework;
• migrating a first Gherkin text in a graph query language standard to be a second Gherkin text in a graph query language according to syntax of the graph query language;
• acquiring a first parsing result of the second Gherkin text from the improved BDD test framework, wherein the first parsing result is an expected result of the second Gherkin text, and a process of parsing the second Gherkin text by the improved BDD test framework comprises parsing the computer-recognizable text combination in the second Gherkin text according to the present lexical rule to obtain the first parsing result;
• checking a background environment and condition preparation according to the second Gherkin text, and executing the graph query language to acquire a first return result from a graph database,
• wherein the second Gherkin text comprises the background environment, the condition preparation, the graph query language, and the expected result, and the first return result is a form of a table that comprises a character string or a regular expression;
• and
• acquiring a comparison result between the first parsing result and the first return result from the graph database,
• wherein the graph query language meets the graph query language standard if the comparison result is that the first parsing result and the first return result are the same;
• otherwise, the graph query language does not meet the graph query language standard;
• wherein acquiring the comparison result between the first parsing result and the first return result from the graph database comprises:
• constructing a corresponding memory object in python for each type specified by the step of acquiring a first parsing result of the second Gherkin text from the improved BDD test framework, wherein the memory object comprises NULL, EMPTY, BOOL, INT, DOUBLE, STRING, DATE, TIME, DATETIME, LIST, SET, MAP, VERTEX, EDGE, and PATH;
• constructing a corresponding memory object in python for each type returned by the step of executing the graph query language to acquire a first return result from a graph database,
• wherein the memory object comprises NULL, EMPTY, BOOL, INT, DOUBLE, STRING, DATE, TIME, DATETIME, LIST, SET, MAP, VERTEX, EDGE, and PATH;
• acquiring a present comparison manner, and
• determining whether the parsing result is the same as the return result from the graph database according to the present comparison manner;
• wherein after constructing the improved BDD test framework, the method further comprises:
• acquiring a test case developed based on a Gherkin language as a third Gherkin text;
• acquiring a second parsing result of the third Gherkin text from the improved BDD test framework, wherein the second parsing result is an expected result of the third Gherkin text;
• acquiring a second return result from the graph database according to the third Gherkin text;
• and
• acquiring a comparison result between the second parsing result and the second return result from the graph database,
• wherein the graph database meets a test standard if the comparison result is that the second parsing result and the second return result are the same;
• otherwise, the graph database does not meet the test standard.
