DDAT: Data Dependency Analysis Tool for Web Service Business Processes

摘要

Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) provides a new generation of software architectures intended to integrate loosely coupled applications. In order to meet changing business goals, SOA systems incorporate multiple independent services supported by various providers. The complex structure of the resulting business processes can be defined in Business Process Execution Language for Web Services (WS-BPEL). One of the main tasks of the quality assurance specialists during software design is testing the execution of different paths of the WS-BPEL process. In order to solve that task we propose an approach that augments the WS-BPEL process for test case generation by analyzing the conditional activities concerning given path of testing.
