Abstract
A method, system and computer program product for testing software comprises discovering, by an agent executing on a computer, testable code configured to execute on the computer; receiving, by the agent, a request related to testing the testable code from a requestor; in response to the request, sending the requestor a property of the testable code; receiving, by the agent, data related to the property; activating; by the agent, the testable code wherein the received data is associated with the property in order to produce a result from the activated testable code; and returning, by the agent, the result to the requestor.
Claims30
A computer-implemented method for testing software, comprising:
- discovering, by an agent executing on a computer, testable code configured to execute on the computer;
- receiving, by the agent, a request related to testing the testable code from a requestor;
- in response to the request, sending the requestor a property of the testable code;
- receiving, by the agent, data related to the property;
- activating, by the agent, the testable code;
- generating a result from the activated testable code, said generating comprising:
- associating the received data with the property;
- and
- returning, by the agent, the result to the requestor.
A system for testing software, comprising:
- an agent module executing on a computer, configured to discover testable code configured to execute on the computer;
- the agent module further configured to receive a request related to testing the testable code from a requestor;
- the agent module further configured to, in response to the request, send the requestor a property of the testable code;
- the agent module further configured to receive data related to the property;
- the agent module further configured to activate the testable code;
- the agent module further configured to associate the received data with the property to generate a result from the activated testable code;
- and
- the agent module further configured to return the result to the requestor.
A computer program product for testing software, comprising:
- a computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, the computer readable program code comprising:
- computer readable program code configured to discover testable code configured to execute on the computer;
- computer readable program code configured to receive a request related to testing the testable code from a requestor;
- computer readable program code configured to, in response to the request, send the requestor a property of the testable code;
- computer readable program code configured to receive data related to the property;
- computer readable program code configured to activate the testable code;
- computer readable program code configured to generate a result from the activated testable code, said computer readable program code configured to generate a result comprising computer readable program code configured to associate the received data with the property;
- and
- computer readable program code configured to return the result to the requestor.
