Testing Automation Framework

The test automation framework is a combination of a small version of our SOA framework and MDSD framework. The framework enables you to model regression test process for your business services. It also allows you to carry out unit module test for existing program modules in host systems. The concept and architecture are explained in our page Testing Modelling and Automation.

The underlying code patterns are Visual Basic scripts. These patterns can be included in the UML activity model for the test process model. After the model is completed, you can immediately execute the scripts that allow you to send your XML messages to your business services. Individual attribute of a reply XML messages can be extracted using XPath and interpreted to determine the following action to be taken.
