Automated browser testing assertion on native file formats
Embodiments provide systems and methods for performing automated browser testing on different native file types by receiving files of different types. A preview version of each file can be generated and rendered in an output file type. Generating the preview version can be performed by a preview application executed by the testing system and rendering the preview version of the first file can be performed by a browser application executed by the testing system. The output file type can be different from the received file type. For example, the received file type can be a native file type of a first application different from the browser and the output file type comprises an HyperText Markup Language (HTML) file type. A test can be executed on the rendered preview version based on one or more assertions on the first file.
1. A method for performing automated browser testing on different native file types, the method comprising:
receiving, by a testing system, a file available in a repository, the file having a file type;
generating, by the testing system, a preview version of the file in an output file type, the output file type being different from the file type;
rendering, by the testing system, the preview version of the file in the output file type;
executing, by the testing system, a test on the rendered preview version of the file, wherein the tests are executed based on one or more assertions on the file; and
providing, by the testing system, an indication of a result of executing the test on the rendered version of the file as verification of the file.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein generating the preview version of the file is performed by a preview application executed by the testing system and wherein rendering the preview version of the file is performed by a browser application executed by the testing system.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the output file type comprises an HyperText Markup Language (HTML) file type.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein file type comprises one of a plurality of different document file types, a plurality of different image file types, a plurality of different video file types, or a plurality of different three-dimensional model file types.
5. The method of claim 2 , wherein executing the test on the rendered preview version of the file comprises controlling operation of the browser application.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein controlling operation of the browser application while executing the test on the rendered preview of the file comprises causing the browser application to receive a second file and render a preview version of the second file.
7. The method of claim 2 , wherein the file type is a native file type of an application different from the browser.
8. A system comprising;
a processor; and
a memory coupled with and readable by the processor and storing therein a set of instructions which, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to perform automated browser testing on different native file types by:
receiving a file available in a repository, the file having a file type;
generating a preview version of the file in an output file type, the output file type being different from the file type;
rendering the preview version of the file in the output file type;
executing a test on the rendered preview version of the file, wherein the tests are executed based on one or more assertions on the file; and
providing an indication of a result of executing the test on the rendered version of the file as verification of the file.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein generating the preview version of the file is performed by a preview application executed by the testing system and wherein rendering the preview version of the file is performed by a browser application executed by the testing system.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the output file type comprises an HyperText Markup Language (HTML) file type.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein file type comprises one of a plurality of different document file types, a plurality of different image file types, a plurality of different video file types, or a plurality of different three-dimensional model file types.
12. The system of claim 9 , wherein executing the test on the rendered preview version of the file comprises controlling operation of the browser application.
13. The system of claim 12 , wherein controlling operation of the browser application while executing the test on the rendered preview of the file comprises causing the browser application to receive a second file and render a preview version of the second file.
14. The system of claim 9 , wherein the file type is a native file type of an application different from the browser.
15. A non-transitory, computer-readable medium comprising a set of instructions stored therein which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to perform automated browser testing on different native file types by:
receiving a file available in a repository, the file having a file type;
generating a preview version of the file in an output file type, the output file type being different from the file type;
rendering the preview version of the file in the output file type;
executing a test on the rendered preview version of the file, wherein the tests are executed based on one or more assertions on the file; and
providing an indication of a result of executing the test on the rendered version of the file as verification of the file.
16. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein generating the preview version of the file is performed by a preview application executed by the testing system, wherein rendering the preview version of the is performed by a browser application executed by the testing system, and wherein the file type is a native file type of an application different from the browser.
17. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the output file type comprises an HyperText Markup Language (HTML) file type.
18. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein file type comprises one of a plurality of different document file types, a plurality of different image file types, a plurality of different video file types, or a plurality of different three-dimensional model file types.
19. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein executing the test on the rendered preview version of the file comprises controlling operation of the browser application.
20. The non-transitory, computer-readable medium of claim 19 , wherein controlling operation of the browser application while executing the test on the rendered preview of the file comprises causing the browser application to receive a second file and render a preview version of the second file.
