Research on GUI-based Automation Test Technology Driven by Separated Definition Data

GUI-based software is often developed a complicated test script with existing traditional automation software testing tools. The software automated test development technology consequently carried out some study of existing automated testing with current automated testing tools to simplify the script. The paper proposed a novel test automation technology with separated definition data, which replaced by script development or modification. The definition data are depicted for script driven, page description and test data separately. The test automation technology provided completed function and interface between this method and actual test tool. The test engineers is not need to write the any test script, but modify the definition files for test developing to some extent. The automation functional test technology has support the typical test tool and proved effective in the specific cases.
