Abstract :
Web applications are becoming increasingly complex and important for companies. Their development, including analysis, design, and testing, needs to be approached by means of support tools. There are some tools provided to support analysis and design. However, few tools are provided to directly support the software testing on Web-based applications. In this paper, a software tool, named WASATT (Web application scenario automated testing tool), is proposed to support the automated testing for scenario of Web-based applications. Testers can create or ask analyst to create extended activity diagram model, which extends the semantics of UML standard activity diagram and can precisely express functional scenario of web applications. Then the extended activity diagram model can be transformed to testing code based on HttpUnit by WASATT. The tool can elevate the automated level of functional testing for Web applications.
