Embodiment Construction

[0028] Before the specific description, first determine the relevant concepts.

[0029] Function call graph: The function call graph of a software is a directed graph, its nodes are all functions, and its edges are the call relationships between functions, including both "intra-class" function calls and "inter-class" function calls. If function A calls function B, there is an edge from A to B. Such as image 3 As shown, it is a part of a GUI software function call graph written in Java language, in which the edge from node "FileMenuUtil.exit" to node "Notepad.exit" is an "inter-class" function call, and the edge from node "FileMenuUtil.exit" to node The edge of "FileMenuUtil.confirmExit" is an "in-class" function call.

[0030] Event response function: The event response function is a special function in GUI software, which connects user operations and internal codes. For example, when the user clicks a button, the system will automatically call the event response function,...

Abstract

A method for generating a graphical user interface (GUI) software test case based on an incident response function tree comprises the steps of analyzing function call relations of GUI software, and constructing a function call graph of the GUI software; extracting all incident response functions according to the constructed software function call graph, recording corresponding operations of the incident response functions, and generating script files; analyzing master-slave relations of the incident response functions through the function call graph, and thus constructing the incident response function tree; traversing the incident response function tree generated in the third step, finding all paths beginning from a root node and ending at a leaf node, sequentially combining recorded corresponding operation scripts according to the sequence of the incident response function, and finally generating the test case. The incident response function tree is constructed according to the method, reachable relations between incidents can be analyzed automatically, and an effective test case is generated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for generating a GUI software test case, in particular to a method for generating a GUI software test case based on an event response function tree model. The method belongs to the technical field of software testing. Background technique [0002] The use of Graphical User Interface (GUI) is becoming more and more common in today's software systems. Usually, in a software system, the GUI part occupies more than half of the code, so the correctness of the GUI part of the software system is to ensure the correctness of the entire software system. critical to the correct operation of the system. In order to ensure the correctness of the GUI part of the software, a more common way is GUI testing. The acquisition of GUI software test cases is generally very resource-intensive and involves a lot of human participation. Although some researchers have proposed some methods for automatic generation of GUI test cases, due to ...
