Towards Practical Modeling of Web Applications and Generating Tests

As Web applications evolve, their structures become more and more complex. Web browsers may influence on the correctness of the Web applications, and Web browser’s interactions can cause further complications of Web application. Existing navigation models are static ones on the whole. Users’ navigation paths are all determined on stage of model design. Web browser interactions have not been taken into account make them different from practical navigation in Web applications. Moreover, as Web applications evolve and new technologies emerge, adaptive navigation was wildly incorporated in current Web applications. It aggravates the complexity of Web navigations. In this paper, a practical approach to modeling of Web applications and generating tests was pro-posed. And special care is taken on Web browser’s interactions and adaptive navigation during the user’s traversal within hypermedia space. At last, test generation is given out which satisfy the corresponding coverage.
