Test-activity flow control for SOA execution test

摘要

Electronic collaboration over the Internet between business partners appear to be converging toward well-established types of message exchange patterns that involve both user-defined standards and infrastructure standards. At the same time, the notion of event is increasingly promoted for asynchronous communication and coordination in SOA systems. In collaboration between partners or between components is achieved by the means of choreographed exchanges of discrete units of data - messages or events - over an Internet-based protocol. This paper presents an event-centric test case scripting method and execution model for such systems.
