Abstract
A method for performing an interactive automation test. The method may comprise detecting a user interaction with a first test object of a user interface, monitoring an effect of the user interaction with the first test object, comparing a result of the user interaction with a list of one or more possible results, and reporting the results of the comparison.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- detecting a user interaction with a first test object of a user interface;
- monitoring an effect of the user interaction with the first test object;
- querying one or more test object identifier for the first test object;
- retrieving, based on the querying and from a plurality of test cases, interactive test cases that are associated with the first test object;
- determining one or more interactive test cases of the retrieved interactive test cases for a functional test of the first test object;
- and
- executing a functional test on the first test object using the one or more interactive test cases.
(canceled)
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- a memory in communication with the processor, the memory containing program instructions that, when executed by the processor, are configured to cause the processor to perform a method, the method comprising:
- detecting a user interaction with a first test object of a user interface;
- monitoring an effect of the user interaction with the first test object;
- querying one or more test object identifier for the first test object;
- retrieving, based on the querying and from a plurality of test cases, interactive test cases that are associated with the first test object;
- determining one or more interactive test cases of the retrieved interactive test cases for a functional test of the first test object;
- and
- executing a functional test on the first test object using the one or more interactive test cases.
A computer program product, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computer to cause the computer to:
- detect a user interaction with a first test object of a user interface;
- monitor an effect of the user interaction with the first test object;
- monitoring an effect of the user interaction with the first test object;
- query one or more test object identifier for the first test object;
- retrieve, based on the querying and from a plurality of test cases, interactive test cases that are associated with the first test object;
- determine one or more interactive test cases of the retrieved interactive test cases for a functional test of the first test object;
- and
- execute a functional test on the first test object using the one or more interactive test cases.
