System and/or method for implementing efficient techniques for testing common information model providers

摘要

A method for testing a provider in a common information model. The method generally includes the steps of (A) generating a test case class of the common information model, the test case class residing in a class hierarchy of an object-oriented model, (B) generating a client test case class of the common information model below the test case class in the class hierarchy, the client test case class defining control of at least one logical configuration for the provider and (C) generating an instance tester class of the common information model below the client test case class in the class hierarchy, the instance tester class defining at least one verification module for testing the provider.
