Automated Framework For Dynamically Creating Test Scripts for Software Testing

A computer program product, comprising a storage medium having a computer readable program code embodied therein, said computer readable program code being adapted to execute a method for dynamically creating test scripts for software testing, said method comprising:

• selecting one or more reference scripts from scripts stored in a script repository to create a selected script set;
• selecting one or more parameters for use with said selected script set to create a selected parameter set;
• using a formula to generate permutations of said selected script set based upon said selected script set and said selected parameter set, wherein said formula includes at least an n-ary Cartesian product based upon the selected script set and the selected parameter set;
• using a relational algebra operation to generate a plurality of permutation test scripts including test code, a dynamic variable, and variable values for the dynamic variable amongst the plurality of the generated permutation test scripts;
• executing at least one of said permutation test scripts;
• aggregating results of said executed permutation test scripts to create an aggregated result set;
• and
• displaying said aggregated result set to a user.
