Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide a white-box testing method and apparatus. The method comprises the steps of determining a code line changed in codes of a target version; determining a function which the code line belongs to; and based on first mapping from the function to test cases, determining a set of the test cases corresponding to the function which the code line belongs to. Compared with the prior art, the method and the apparatus provided by the embodiments of the invention have the advantages that finite test cases can be selected based on a function call relationship for covering software characteristics influenced by code change, so that the automatic testing efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to software testing, and more particularly, to methods and apparatus for white-box testing. Background technique [0002] In a typical software continuous integration (CI) environment, software development and verification are linked in a seamlessly integrated toolchain. Code changes (eg, commits, pull requests, or other code submissions) will trigger automatic compilation of the committed code, as well as automatic testing of the code with a list of test cases. Therefore, intensive code commits will lead to intensive regression testing tasks. [0003] In order to select test cases for regression testing, methods in the prior art generally include: selecting a smoke test suite, selecting a complete test suite, or manually selecting test cases. Smoke testing refers to testing the basic functions of the software to ensure that the basic functions of the software can work normally. So the smoke tes...
