Self-learning application test automation

A method of testing an application comprising:

• executing the application,
• wherein the execution of the application includes:
• switching on test script generation process based on test configuration parameters,
• wherein the test script generation process includes:
• receiving event data emitted by the application during the execution of the application;
• extracting application data from the event data wherein the application data includes user input, flow of the application during the execution of the application, and results generated in response to the user input;
• generating at least one test script by formatting the application data and including an expected result of the user interactions with the formatted application data;
• comparing the at least one test script with prior recorded test scripts of the application in a test script repository;
• determining that the combination of the at least one test script is not included in the prior recorded test scripts in the test script repository;
• storing as a new test script the at least one test script;
• retrieving test execution configuration settings from a configuration repository;
• halting the test script generation process after the generation of the new test script;
• and
• executing at least one regression test on the application in accordance with the new test script.

A non-transitory processor-readable storage medium comprising machine-readable instructions that cause a processor to:

• execute an application,
• wherein the execution of the application includes:
• enabling a test script generation process based on test configuration parameters,
• wherein the test script generation process includes:
• receiving event data obtained from the application as a result of user interactions with the application during the execution of the application;
• extracting application data from the event data wherein the application data includes at least user inputs, application flow, and results generated in response to the user inputs;
• generating at least one test script by combining the application data along with an expected result of the user interactions;
• comparing the at least one test script with prior recorded test scripts of the application in a test script repository;
• determining that the combination of the at least one test script is not included in the prior recorded test scripts in the test script repository;
• storing as a new test script the at least one test script;
• retrieving test execution configuration settings from a configuration repository;
• halting the test script generation process after the generation of the new test script;
• and
• executing at least one regression test on the application in accordance with the new test script.
