The Design And Realization Of Automatic Script Generating System For Linux GUI Functional Testing Based On LDTP

Testing is a process to identify defects in a software system. However, software testing is a tedious work. Testing an application multiple times with same steps, automated process can do a better job. But also, the process of developing an automatic test program is difficult. The system's goal is to solve this problem by implementing an automatic test framework. By analyzing the current automatic testing technology, the system decided to use Keyword-driven approach to implement the system. First, the author designed a rule for writing test cases. While the test cases are written under this rule, the system can generate scripts automatically. Second, the author implemented a system to manage the test cases and scripts. Finally, the paper introduces the use of this system by example and compares it with some open source systems to prove that the system is effective and outstanding. The system can help the testers developing test scripts quickly, and this will enormously reduce the cost in developing and maintaining test scripts.
