一种面向终端用户的Web服务测试方法

面向终端用户的Web服务(Web Service)测试,是保证Web服务软件系统质量的重要技术手段。文章提出了一种Web服务应用环境下的测试模型和测试覆盖指标,旨在针对Web服务与应用环境进行交互的方式,测试Web服务的操作调用序列,为终端用户提供一种高效验证Web服务行为的方法,以提高基于Web服务软件系统的可靠性;并给出了测试覆盖分析支持工具WSCoverageAnalyzer的设计结构;最后基于一个Web服务Seller的应用案例,说明了所提出的方法。

A Method of End-User Testing for Web Services

End-user testing for Web Service is one of the most important techniques used to ensure the quality of Web Service based software.The paper proposes: (1) test model for Web Service usage in context;(2) test coverage criteria.In the full paper,we explain our method in some detail;in this abstract,we just add some pertinent remarks to naming the first two sections of the full paper.Section 1 is: our test model and our test coverage criteria.Its two subsections are: our test model for Web Service(subsection1.1) and our test coverage criteria(subsection1.2).In subsection 1.1,we give Definitions 1,2,and 3 concerning our test model WSTM(Web Service Testing Model).In subsection 1.2,we give the definition for each of eight different coverage criteria.Section 2 is: designing the Web Service coverage analyzer.Fig.2 in this section gives the major functions of the coverage analyzer.Finally we present an application example. The analysis of the application example shows preliminarily that our method is effective.
