Detailed Description

In order that the above-recited objects, features and advantages of the present application will be more clearly understood, a more particular description of the application will be rendered by reference to the appended drawings and appended detailed description. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application, however, the present application may be practiced in other ways than those described herein, and the scope of the application is therefore not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

Based on the foregoing, a JSON-based web automation test method, system and apparatus in accordance with some embodiments of the present application are described below with reference to fig. 1-3.

As shown in fig. 1, the web automation testing method based on JSON provided by the embodiment of the application includes the following steps:

acquiring source codes of web applications;

testing at least one test case of the case library to obtain a test result;

According to the web automation test method based on JSON, provided by the embodiment of the application, the JSON data structure is used as a basis in each step, for example, interactive elements are marked through the JSON data structure and collected to obtain an element library; adopting a JSON data structure to present the behaviors of the interactive elements of the element library, wherein the behaviors can be operation behaviors or judging behaviors and the like, namely adopting the JSON data structure to limit the relation between the interactive elements of the element library and the behaviors, and forming a behavior library corresponding to the behaviors of different interactive elements in the element library; constructing test cases by using an element library and a behavior library, and adopting a JSON data structure as well, so that a plurality of test cases form a case library; and (5) testing the running case library.

The application describes the test flow and the judgment of the test result through the JSON data structure, and because the JSON data structure is simpler, the development and the test can both quickly construct the flow, and the test flow can be split into each fine action and reused, the cost is reduced as a whole.

The method comprises the steps of obtaining a source code of a web application, and constructing an element library and a behavior library based on the source code of the web application;

specifically, interactive elements are marked and collected to form an element library;

generally, when an application program can mark an interactive element through codes, the marking of the interactive element through the codes can be realized by adopting the following procedures:

< button test-id= 'submit_button' test-desc= 'submit button'/>.

And then analyzing the file through the script to collect all the marked points, and storing the marked points, for example, the marked points can be stored in any computer readable storage medium or cloud. The collected marker points constitute an element library.

The element library, the behavior library and the use case library are all stored in the cloud end, so that the elements, the behavior library and the use case library are convenient to access at any time, the cloud end can be backed up, files can be transferred, and the like.

Storing behaviors of the interactive elements in the element library to form a behavior library;

the behavior type can be represented by a JSON data structure of an action type, and also can be represented by a JSON data structure of an aset type. The behavior library can be provided with a JSON data structure of an action type alone, a JSON data structure of an aset type alone, or a JSON data structure of an action type and a JSON data structure of an aset type.

The actions type of behavior may include a wide variety of actions such as clicking (which may include double clicking, single clicking, right clicking, etc.), touching, sound, music, vibration, etc.

For example, a click of a user is described by a simple JSON data structure, which can be:

{

"type":"action",

"action":"click",

"element":"#submit_button"

}

the assert type is mainly used for judging whether the test result is correct or not, and the JSON data structure of the assert type can be expressed as follows:

thus, in some possible embodiments, the type of behavior is an action type and/or an aspert type.

And constructing test cases by using the element library and the behavior library, wherein the test cases form a case library.

The selection and/or editing of the library of elements and the library of behaviors is typically performed in an editor, whose modes of operation may be performed using the following procedure:

the test case represents: logging into the xxx website, then jumping to/index page, waiting for 2 seconds, and then judging whether the # element exists.

Thus, all test cases together form a case library.

And testing at least one test case of the case library to obtain a test result.

In the execution process, JSON data is generally parsed first, and then a puppeter library is called to run a test flow.

As shown in fig. 2, an embodiment of the present application further provides a JSON-based web automation test system, including:

an acquisition unit configured to acquire source code of a web application;

In some possible embodiments, as shown in fig. 3, the web automation test system further includes a program calling unit configured to call a puppeter library to test the test case.

The program call unit of the present application may exist in the test unit or may exist in a separate form.

In addition, after the test is completed, the test result of the case library unit is generally retransmitted to the test unit, namely, the test result is obtained in the test unit.

Based on the above method shown in fig. 1 to 3, correspondingly, the embodiment of the present application further provides a storage medium, where the storage medium is used to store executable instructions, where the executable instructions implement the steps of the above JSON-based web automation test method when executed.

Based on such understanding, the technical solution of the present application may be embodied in the form of a software product, which may be stored on an electronic device or a website executing the method of various implementation scenarios of the present application.

The storage medium may further include an operating system and a network communication module. An operating system is a program that manages and saves computer device hardware and software resources, supporting the execution of information handling programs and other software and/or programs. The network communication module is used for realizing communication among all components in the storage medium and communication with other hardware and software in the entity equipment.

In particular, the present application illustrates the implementation of a JSON-based web automation test method in the following examples.

Example 1

1. First, a developer marks interactable elements in the code of an application, < button test-id= 'submit_button' test-desc= 'submit button'/>

And then analyzing the file through the script to collect all the mark points, and uploading the mark points to the cloud to form an element library of the application.

2. The user clicks as a behavior, and the JSON data structure is as follows:

{

"type":"action",

"action":"click",

"element":"#submit_button"

}

where the value action of type represents a user action, the value click of action represents a click event, and the value #submit_button of element represents a clicked element, which is derived from the element library mentioned above. In addition to this, there are more user behaviors that together form a library of behaviors.

3. The test case maintainer edits the test case in the cloud editor, and the editor can select and edit the behavior of the behavior library and the elements of the element library, so that a case is quickly constructed. The following are provided:

the test case indicates that log-in to the xxx website is performed, then jump to/index page, wait for 2 seconds, and then judge if the # element exists. All test cases together form a case library.

In the execution process, the JSON data is first parsed, and then the puppeter library is called to run the test flow.

Example 2

2. The value type of assert is adopted to judge whether the test result is correct or not, and the JSON data structure is as follows:

indicating whether the element xxx exists or not, and if so, failing the test.

3. The test case maintainer edits the test case in the cloud editor, and the editor selects and edits the behavior of the behavior library and the elements of the element library to quickly construct a case. The following are provided:

The application reduces the maintenance cost and threshold of the test case by precipitating the element library, the behavior library and the case library.
