Preparing an optimized test suite for testing an application under test in single or multiple environments

摘要

Embodiments herein provide a method and system to create an optimized test suite for software testing. This system fetches required input parameters such as risk parameters, release type of the application, requirement details, test case details, requirement to test case relation and so on automatically using any suitable tool. Then, first level optimized test suite is formed by removing redundant and obsolete test cases from test case set. Further, probability of failure is calculated for each test case either manually or through automation and risk index value for each test case is defined. Further, test cases are classified based on value of risk index obtained. Further, second level optimized test suite is formed by using orthogonal array methodology. Furthermore, final optimized test suite with greater precision is prepared by considering execution time of iteration of all test cases along with their risk index values.
