Abstract

A framework for end-to-end scenario-level automated testing of a multi-technology application. Execution of end-to-end automated testing of a multi-technology application is triggered from a single platform on a local client machine, The end-to-end automated test comprises a plurality of tests each developed from a different testing tool. Test result data is received from the execution of the tests. Test result data is passed from the execution of one of the tests to a different test for use in the execution of the different test. A log of results is generated for the end-to-end automated testing of the multi-technology application based on the received test result data from the execution of the plurality of tests. In some embodiments, execution of a test on a back-end system is triggered from the single platform on the local client machine. In some embodiments, the back-end system is an ABAP back-end system.

Claims (46)

1 . A computer-implemented method comprising:

triggering, from a single platform on a local client machine, execution of a first test of a plurality of tests, each of the plurality of tests associated with a different testing tool, the execution of the plurality of tests together comprising an end-to-end automated testing of a multi-technology application;

receiving test result data from the execution of the first test;

triggering, from the single platform on the local client machine, execution of a second test of the plurality of tests;

passing test result data from the first test to the second test for use in the execution of the second test; and

generating a log of results for the end-to-end automated testing of the multi-technology application based on the end-to-end automated testing.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining, from the local client machine, a testing tool from which to develop one of the plurality of tests.

3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising creating, from the local client machine, test logic for use in execution of at least one of the plurality of tests.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the execution of the plurality of tests is performed on the local client machine.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the execution of the plurality of tests is performed on a remote client machine.

6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising triggering, from the single platform on the local client machine, execution of a test on a back-end system.

7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the back-end system is an ABAP back-end system.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein triggering the execution of first test comprises:

a driver on the client machine sending a test request to an adapter on the client machine, the test request corresponding to the first test;

the adapter determining a testing tool plug-in that corresponds to the first test; and

the adapter invoking the testing tool plug-in for use in the execution of the first test.

9 . A system comprising:

a client machine having at least one processor; and

a framework operable on the client machine and configured to:

trigger, from a single platform on a local client machine, execution of a first test of a plurality of tests, each of the plurality of tests associated with a different testing tool, the execution of the plurality of tests together comprising an end-to-end automated testing of a multi-technology application;

receive test result data from the execution of the first test;

trigger, from the single platform on the local client machine, execution of a second test of the plurality of tests;

pass test result data from the first test to the second test for use in the execution of the second test; and

generate a log of results for the end-to-end automated testing of the multi-technology application based on the end-to-end automated testing.

10 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the framework is further configured to determine a testing tool from which to develop one of the plurality of tests.

11 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the framework is further configured to creating test logic for use in execution of at least one of the plurality of tests.

12 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the execution of the plurality of tests is performed on the local client machine.

13 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the execution of the plurality of tests is performed on a remote client machine.

14 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the framework is further configured to trigger execution of a test on a back-end system.

15 . The system of claim 14 , wherein the back-end system is an ABAP back-end system.

16 . The system of claim 9 , further comprising a driver on the client machine configured to send a test request to an adapter on the client machine, the test request corresponding to the first test, wherein the adapter is configured to determine a testing tool plug-in that corresponds to the first test, and to invoke the testing tool plug-in for use in the execution of the first test.

17 . A non-transitory machine-readable storage device, tangibly embodying a set of instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

triggering, from a single platform on a local client machine, execution of a first test of a plurality of tests, each of the plurality of tests associated with a different testing tool, the execution of the plurality of tests together comprising an end-to-end automated testing of a multi-technology application;

receiving test result data from the execution of the first test;

triggering, from the single platform on the local client machine, execution of a second test of the plurality of tests;

passing test result data from the first test to the second test for use in the execution of the second test; and

generating a log of results for the end-to-end automated testing of the multi-technology application based on the end-to-end automated testing.

18 . The machine-readable storage device of claim 17 , wherein the operations further comprise determining, from the local client machine, a testing tool from which to develop one of the plurality of tests.

19 . The machine-readable storage device of claim 17 , wherein the operations further comprise creating, from the local client machine, test logic for use in execution of at least one of the plurality of tests.

20 . The machine-readable storage device of claim 17 , wherein the execution of the plurality of tests is performed on the local client machine.

21 . The machine-readable storage device of claim 17 , wherein the execution of the plurality of tests is performed on a remote client machine.

22 . The machine-readable storage device of claim 17 , wherein the operations further comprise triggering, from the single platform on the local client machine, execution of a test on a back-end system.

23 . The machine-readable storage device of claim 17 , wherein triggering the execution of the first test comprises:

a driver on the client machine sending a test request to an adapter on the client machine, the test request corresponding to the first test;

the adapter determining a testing tool plug-in that corresponds to the first test; and

the adapter invoking the testing tool plug-in for use in the execution of the first test.
