GENERIC TEST AUTOMATION FOR GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE (GUI) APPLICATIONS

摘要

A method for generic test automation comprises mapping generic interface commands for objects to be tested to tool-specific interface commands of a test automation tool. An application-specific element map based on an application for test is identified, and the application-specific element map includes label names for the elements of the application-specific element map. Application-specific user actions, which are created based on the generic interface commands and the application-specific element map, are sent to the test automation tool for testing the application.
