Abstract
There is provided a computer-implemented method of testing an application. The method obtains first temporary test scripts for testing at least one test case of a first version of the application, and the first temporary test scripts are recorded with first mark data used for testing the first version of the application. The method obtains a first correspondence between the first mark data and test data. The method substitutes the test data for the first mark data in the first temporary test scripts based on the first correspondence to obtain first test scripts for testing the at least one test case of the first version of the application.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method of testing an application, comprising:
- obtaining first temporary test scripts for testing at least one test case of a first version of the application, the first temporary test scripts being recorded with first mark data used for testing the first version of the application;
- obtaining a first correspondence between the first mark data and test data;
- substituting the test data for the first mark data in the first temporary test scripts based on the first correspondence to obtain first test scripts for testing the at least one test case of the first version of the application.
A computer system for testing an application, comprising:
- at least one processor, a memory coupled to the at least one processor, computer program instructions stored in the memory and executed by the at least one processor, to perform steps of:
- obtaining first temporary test scripts for testing at least one test case of a first version of the application, the first temporary test scripts being recorded with first mark data used for testing the first version of the application;
- obtaining a first correspondence between the first mark data and test data;
- substituting the test data for the first mark data in the first temporary test scripts based on the first correspondence to obtain first test scripts for testing the at least one test case of the first version of the application.
A computer program product for testing an application, comprising a computer readable storage medium, the computer readable storage medium storing program instructions thereon, the program instructions executed by at least one processor, causing the at least one processor to:
- obtain first temporary test scripts for testing at least one test case of a first version of the application, the first temporary test scripts being recorded with first mark data used for testing the first version of the application;
- obtain a first correspondence between the first mark data and test data;
- substitute the test data for the first mark data in the first temporary test scripts based on the first correspondence to obtain first test scripts for testing the at least one test case of the first version of the application.
