Operation pattern generation apparatus, operation pattern generation method and program

An operation pattern generation method, comprising

• retrieving code data of screens of a web application for testing, wherein the data of screens include operation elements of the screens, and the operation elements include input data with a predetermined value;
• generating a plurality of operation patterns of a web application, wherein an operating pattern of the plurality of operating patterns include operation elements that cause a transition between the screens of the web application and input data candidates for input elements to be used to input data on the screens, wherein the operating pattern includes the operation elements that cause the transition between screens of the web application based on only the predetermined value as a value of the input data among the input data candidates for input elements;
• automatically operating, based on the plurality of operation patterns, the web application to reconstruct a specification of the web application based on a result from the automatically operating according to reverse based engineering;
• and
• generating, based on the reconstructed specification of the web application, a test script for testing the web application.

A system for generating an operation pattern, the system comprises a processor configured to execute a method comprising:

• retrieving code data of screens of a web application for testing, wherein the data of screens include operation elements of the screens, and the operation elements include input data with a predetermined value;
• generating a plurality of operation patterns of a web application, wherein an operation pattern of the plurality of operation patterns include operation elements that cause a transition between the screens of the web application and input data candidates for input elements to be used to input data on the screens, wherein the operating pattern includes the operation elements that cause the transition between screens of the web application based on only the predetermined value as a value of the input data among the input data candidates for input elements;
• automatically operating, based on the plurality of operation patterns, the web application to reconstruct a specification of the web application based on a result from the automatically operating according to reverse based engineering;
• and
• generating, based on the reconstructed specification of the web application, a test script for testing the web application.
