Abstract
A method for testing a web service using inherited test attributes is described. The method includes generating a test template for a web service entry point, in which a test template comprises a number of test attributes, generating a number of test elements based on the test template, in which a test element inherits the number of test attributes, and executing the number of test elements.
Claims15
A method for testing a web service using inherited test attributes, comprising:
- generating a test template for a web service entry point, in which a test template comprises a number of test attributes;
- generating a number of test elements based on the test template, in which a test element inherits the number of test attributes;
- and
- executing the number of test elements.
A system for testing a web service using inherited test attributes, comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, the memory comprising:
- a test database to store a number of test templates for a number of web service entry points, in which a test template comprises a number of test attributes to describe a web service entry point;
- a parser to generate a number of test elements to test the web service, in which the number of test elements inherit the number of test attributes from the number of test templates;
- and
- a runner to execute the number of test elements.
A computer program product for testing a web service using inherited test attributes, the computer program product comprising:
- a computer readable storage medium comprising computer usable program code embodied therewith, the computer usable program code comprising computer usable program code to, when executed by a processor:
- generate a test template for a web service entry point, in which a test template comprises a number of test attributes;
- generate a number of test elements based on the test template, in which a test element inherits the number of test attributes;
- group a number of test elements into a number of test cases;
- execute the number of test cases;
- and
- generate a test report based on the execution of the test cases.
