Universal quality assurance automation framework

Abstract

The present invention provides a method and a system for a universal software quality assurance automation framework. The three reusable components of this framework are composed of a test resource comprising of a test module-entity driver-entity communication. The test module provides an opportunity to create several case scenarios and test logics. The entity driver enables the test environment software entities to be accessible to the test module, without prior knowledge of where those entities are located. The entity communication enables the drivers to communicate with various entities inside the test environment. The combination of the three reusable components enable the framework to be product agnostic. Multiple tests may be performed in parallel. Test cases are presented in the integrated graphical user interface as a hierarchical managing structure. The framework is collaborative and multiple users may use it simultaneously.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
