The Design And Implementation Of Test Data Automated Generation

In all the software development process, testing is the most important part. In the process of software development, one hand, it is required that all the functionalities be verified through the testing activities to meet the described feature in the requirement, all the performance meet the requirement of load pressure, corresponding response time and throughput requirement. On the other hand, Market-oriented and customer, the development team needs to meet the budget as soon as the software requirements. But purely manual testing, not only inefficient, large consumption, also its input-output ratio is relatively low, at this time, automated test to become a hot topic.In the former manual testing, if want to test an application which use large database as the data storage, it must to generate the test data firstly manually. This consumes a lot of time and energy of the test engineers. At this time, the application of automation test for generating test data automatically can solve this problem. Base on the analysis of the generating process, it cannot only implement the automate generation process successfully, but can also implement other test design assignment base on the data driven framework. This is meaningful for the whole test work.Under this premise, this text carried on a research to the test methodology, technique and test tools which already exist, combining with actual experience and the encountered problem, put forward under the mode that data drive, automate the method of the born test data, and carry out it in the practice the item. A methodology based on data driven, which can generate the test data automatically has been developed and implemented into project.In that methodology, it not only implements the function of automated generation based on data driven, but also successfully carried out the separation of test script, test data and business logic. At the mean time, expand the test script module to make it has high usability and expedition, with convenience while carrying out other test assignment.After the implementation of the automated generation, it embodiments the success and practicality of automation testing, frees the manual test engineer from the boring data generation process, and solved the difficulties that encountered during the work. Finally, this paper summed up the practice in the course of the main work and the achievements, and prospects the future.
